Author: Mrs. C. A. Means Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #16686 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D First Line: But yestermorn the angry waves Lyrics:
1 But yestermorn the angry waves
Tossed high their crests of foam;
The piercing winds with fury raged,
And wanderers longed for home;
Now ’neath the shade of moss-grown rock,
I watch the quiet sea;
And list the gentle rippling sound
It softly speaks to me.
2 The voice that stilled the angry waves,
And hushed the storm to rest,
Can all thy heart’s vain tumult soothe,
And fill with peace thy breast.
O, restless heart, wilt thou not turn,
To Him who gave thee life?
His love can bring the deepest calm,
And save from endless strife.
