1 Wrecked on the billow, rent by the gale, Parted the anchor, shattered the sail. Faint and despairing, thus was my cry, Master, I perish, save, or I die, Friend of the friendless, where shall I flee? I have no refuge, only in Thee; Leave me not hopeless, hear Thou my cry, Master, I perish, save, or I die. 2 Why am I faithless? Jesus is near, Stilling the tempest, chiding my fear, Bidding the waters, turbid and wild, Sleep in the beauty calm as a child, Why am I faithless? let me believe, All that is needful I shall receive; Thou that hast led me safe through the storm, All Thou hast promised Thou wilt perform. 3 Oh, that my spirit ever might rest Under Thy shadow tranquil and blest, Folding its pinions lovingly there, Praising Thy goodness, trusting Thy care! Friend of the friendless, where shall I flee? I have no refuge, only in Thee. Leave me not hopeless hear Thou my cry, Master, I perish, save, or I die. | The Bright Array #124 (1889) |
