Lyrics If on a quiet sea, T'ward heav'n we calmly sail, With thankful hearts, O God, to Thee, We'll own the fav'ring gale. But should the surges rise, And rest delay to come Blest be the tempest, kind the storm Which drives us nearer home. Teach us in ev'ry state To make Thy will our own; And when the joys of sense depart, To live by faith alone.
