Christ Stilling the Tempest

Author: Mrs. Hemans Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 23 hymnals First Line: Fear was within the tossing bark Lyrics: Fear was within the tossing bark, When stormy winds grew loud; And waves came rolling high and dark, And the tall mast was bowed. But the wind ceased,—it ceased,—a word Passed through the gloomy sky; The troubled billows knew their Lord, And sank beneath his eye. And slumber settled on the deep, And silence on the blast; They sank as flowers that fold to sleep When sultry day is past. O Thou that in its wildest hour Didst rule the tempest’s mood, Send now thy Spirit forth in power O’er our dark souls to brood! Thou that didst bow the billows’ pride, Thy mandate to fulfil, Speak, speak to passion’s raging tide, Speak, and say, “Peace, be still!”

Author: John Mason Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 153 hymnals Lyrics: 1. I’ve found the pearl of greatest price, My heart doth sing for joy; And sing I must, for Christ is mine; Christ shall my song employ. 2. Christ is my Prophet, Priest and King; A Prophet full of light, My great High Priest before the throne, My King of heav’nly might. 3. For He indeed is Lord of lords, And He the King of kings; He is the sun of righteousness, With healing in His wings. 4. Christ is my peace; He died for me, For me He gave His blood; And as my wondrous Sacrifice, Offered Himself to God. 5. Christ Jesus is my all in all, My comfort and my love, My life below, and He shall be My joy and crown above. Used With Tune: MARTYRDOM Text Sources: Spiritual Songs, 1683
