Saved! (Leizure)
Author: Enoch Hughes Leizure Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: See yon bark amid the breakers Refrain First Line: Saved! oh, bless'd thought to cherish Lyrics: 1. See yon bark amid the breakers,
Struggling hard to reach the land;
See those brave and noble sailors,
As they labor hand to hand:
Lightnings flashing, thunders roaring,
Dangers threaten all around;
Yet their courage does not fail them,
Hoping safety may be found.
Refrain
Saved! oh, blessèd thought to cherish;
Saved! we see the golden shore;
Clinging to the cross of Jesus,
There is safety evermore.
2. Soon the storm begins to weaken,
Light breaks forth, the tempest’s past;
Onward speeds the noble vessel,
Onward, onward, saved at last:
Then those hearts are filled with gladness,
Fear and sorrow reign no more;
Saved from shipwreck, free from danger,
Saved! yes, saved! the storm is o’er.[Refrain]
3. Oh! how oft the storms o’ertake us,
As through life we wend our way;
Clouds of darkness hang above us,
Shutting out the sun’s bright ray:
Then we lift our eyes to Heaven,
Gazing t’ward th’eternal day;
And the light grows brighter, brighter,
Ent’ring Heaven—saved for aye![Refrain] Used With Tune: [See yon bark amid the breakers] Text Sources: Sowing and Reaping, by John H. Kurzenknabe (Harrisburg, Pennsylvania: J. H. Kurzenknabe & Sons, 1889), number 142

Bruno Spangenberg
1851 - 1937 Person Name: Bruno Richard Spangenberg Composer of "[See yon bark amid the breakers]" in The Cyber Hymnal Bruno Richard Spangenberg 1851–1937. Born in Bromberg, Germany. Bruno was a music teacher, organist, and later, business owner who spent most of his adult life in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.
At the age of 13, Bruno, with his minster father and 3 brothers, immigrated to Missouri. His pastor father came to serve the growing German population there. The family later moved to Reading, Ohio where his father founded St John’s German Evangelical Lutheran Church, now St. John’s United Church of Christ.
Bruno attended Eastern Lutheran Teachers’ Seminary (now Concordia University) in Addison, Illinois, where he pursued a teaching certificate.
Mr. Spangenberg taught in a Harrisburg public school for eleven years. He also led the choir and played the organ at St. Michael’s Lutheran Church. He helped establish the German Maennerchoir in Harrisburg and was their vocal teacher and organist.
In the early 1890s Bruno moved to Rochester, NY to teach in a Lutheran school and serve as organist for a congregation there. He married Sara Blankenhorn whom he had met in Harrisburg. After a short tenure the Spangenbergs moved to Rondout (Kingston), NY to serve a school and larger congregation – the Trinity German Evangelical Lutheran Church. Bruno served there from 1893–98. Following the death of their first child Bruno and Sara moved back to Harrisburg, nearer family and friends.
About 1900, Bruno and Sara became the proprietors of Spangenbergs’ Ice Cream, a new and increasing popular product. Their market was heart of Harrisburg and its capitol region. Church music became a secondary pursuit, but still an active one.
The Spangenbergs eventually bought a home with acreage in Camp Hill, across the Susquehanna River, where they retired and lived their remaining years.
