Text: | When the Pilot Came On Board |
Author: | Rev. Henry J. Zelley |
Tune: | [I'm sailing o'er life's restless sea] |
Composer: | C. Harold Lowden |
1 I’m sailing o’er life’s restless sea,
To where the many mansions be;
From all my fears my head was free
When the Pilot came on board.
Refrain:
I’m sailing on, I’m bound for home,
I laugh at ocean’s spray and foam;
I trust His kill, obey His word,
Since the Pilot cam on board.
2 He came in answer to my pray’r
And guides me t’ward the haven fair;
I found myself relieved of care,
When the Pilot came on board. [Refrain]
3 His coming did not still the storm
But took away all fear of harm,
I trusted in His mighty arm,
When the Pilot came on board. [Refrain]
4 I saw the breakers, crested white,
Arising in unconscious might,
But still I knew ‘twould all be right
When the Pilot came on board. [Refrain]
