Text: | Jesus On the Sea |
Author: | Fanny Crosby |
Tune: | [O I love to think of Jesus on the dark and stormy sea] |
Composer: | W. J. Kirkpatrick |
1 O I love to think of Jesus on the dark and stormy sea,
When it broke in awful grandeur on the shore;
How He spoke and all was still,
How the waves obeyed His will,
And the tempest in a moment ceased to roar.
Chorus:
On the sea, on the sea,
O I love to think of Jesus on the sea;
He whispered, “Peace, be still,”
And the waves obeyed His will;
O I love to think of Jesus on the sea.
2 O I love to think of Jesus in the midnight on the sea,
When His lonely men were troubled and dismayed;
How their hearts were filled with fear,
For they thought a spirit near,
But He said to them, “’Tis I, be not afraid.” [Chorus]
3 O I love to think of Jesus when the ev’ning shades descend,
When the stormy winds are moaning wild and free;
When the distant surges roar,
When they bear upon the shore,
O I love to think of Jesus on the sea. [Chorus]
