332. Star of peace! to wand'rers weary

1 Star of peace! to wand'rers weary,
Bright the beams that smile on me;
Cheer the pilot's vision dreary,
Far, far at sea.

2 Star of hope! gleam on the billow;
Bless the soul that sighs for thee.
Bless the sailor's lonely pillow,
Far, far at sea.

3 Star of faith, when winds are mocking
All his toil, he flies to thee;
Save him, on the billows rocking,
Far, far at sea.

4 Star divine! oh safely guide him,--
Bring the wanderer home to Thee!
Sore temptations long have tried him,
Far, far at sea.
