Text: | Jesus, Saviour, pilot me |
Author: | Edward Hopper (1818-88) |
1 Jesus, Saviour, pilot me
Over life’s tempestuous sea;
Unknown waves before me roll,
Hiding rocks and treacherous shoal;
Chart and compass come from thee,
Jesus, Saviour, pilot me.
2 As a mother stills her child,
Thou canst hush the ocean wild.
Raging waves obey thy will,
When thou say’st to them: Be still.
Wondrous Sovereign of the sea,
Jesus, Saviour, pilot me.
3 When at last I near the shore,
And the fearful breakers roar
‘Twixt me and the peaceful rest,
Then, while leaning on thy breast,
May I hear thee say to me:
Fear not, I will pilot thee.
