O, let us exalt our dear Lord and proclaim,
In songs of true gratitude, praise to His name!
As songs of the angels in sweetest accord,
Our thanks and our praises shall rise to the Lord.

Lyrics
Upon a stormy sea of life,
Thru many storms and gales,
A sturdy ship does bear us on
As t'ward our port it sails.
This ship of faith is God's own ark,
Our Captain is the Lord,
It carries to the land of rest
All passengers on board.

Of all provisions there's no lack,
We have the living bread;
And living water we can drink,
On our long course ahead.
Our anchor is our saving hope,
God's word our compass true,
Which points to us the living way
On which we must pursue.

Of any storm we have no fears,
We have a well-built ark,
And at the helm we have a Man
Who guides this saving bark.
If He commands the wind and sea
The billows no more roll;
Thru all the dangers He will bring
Us safely to our goal.

Behold the land can now be seen
Tho' clouds before it lie,
But clearer it does soon become
To faith's keen single eye.
Soon we shall reach the pearly shore
With life's sea safely crossed;
There we shall sing, "Yea great things hath
Our God performed for us!"

Chorus:
So with Christ's singleness of mind
Let each one lend a helping hand;
Hoist up the sails and on we'll go
Unto the promised land!
