Lyrics

Jesus, Savior, pilot me,
Over life's tempestuous sea,
Unknown waves before me roll,
Hiding rock and treach'rous shoal;
Chart and compass come from Thee,
Jesus, Savior, pilot me,
Jesus, Savior, pilot me.

As a mother stills her child,
Thou can'st hush the ocean wild,
Boist'rous waves obey Thy will,
When Thou say'st to them be still;
Wondrous Sov'reign of the sea,
Jesus, Savior, pilot me,
Jesus, Savior, pilot me.


When at last I near the shore,
And the fearful breakers roar,
'Twixt me and the peaceful rest,
Then, while leaning on Thy breast,
May I hear Thee say to me,
"Fear not, I will pilot thee,
Fear not, I will pilot thee."
