Out on life's dark heaving ocean

Author: Dr. E. H. Dewart, 1828-1903 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #460 (1917) Lyrics: 1 Out on life's dark heaving ocean, Winds and waves around us rave; In the tempest's wild commotion, Friend of sinners, shield and save! Vain are all our weak endeavours Thou our Guide and Helper be! Star of hope! in danger cheer us; Help can only come from Thee. 2 When the storms of fierce temptation Wildly sweep across our way, And the night of fear and sorrow Quenches every starry ray, Let Thy presence, great Redeemer, Banish all our guilty fear; And the joy of Thy salvation Every fainting spirit cheer. 3 When the mists of doubt and passion Hide the reefs and shoals from sight, God of Love, protect and save us! Be our Refuge and our Light; Be our sure, unerring Pilot, Guide us safely to the shore, Where the waves of sin and sorrow Beat upon the soul no more.

Samuel Webbe

1740 - 1816 Person Name: Samuel Webbe, 1740-1816 Composer of "BITHYNIA" in Methodist Hymn and Tune Book Samuel Webbe (the elder; b. London, England, 1740; d. London, 1816) Webbe's father died soon after Samuel was born without providing financial security for the family. Thus Webbe received little education and was apprenticed to a cabinet­maker at the age of eleven. However, he was determined to study and taught himself Latin, Greek, Hebrew, French, German, and Italian while working on his apprentice­ship. He also worked as a music copyist and received musical training from Carl Barbant, organist at the Bavarian Embassy. Restricted at this time in England, Roman Catholic worship was freely permitted in the foreign embassies. Because Webbe was Roman Catholic, he became organist at the Portuguese Chapel and later at the Sardinian and Spanish chapels in their respective embassies. He wrote much music for Roman Catholic services and composed hymn tunes, motets, and madrigals. Webbe is considered an outstanding composer of glees and catches, as is evident in his nine published collections of these smaller choral works. He also published A Collection of Sacred Music (c. 1790), A Collection of Masses for Small Choirs (1792), and, with his son Samuel (the younger), Antiphons in Six Books of Anthems (1818). Bert Polman
