<p>Jesus, Savior, pilot me<br>
Over life&#8217;s tempestuous sea;<br>
Unknown waves before me roll,<br>
Hiding rock and treacherous shoal.<br>
Chart and compass come from Thee;<br>
Jesus, Savior, pilot me.</p>
<p>While th&#8217;Apostles&#8217; fragile bark<br>
Struggled with the billows dark,<br>
On the stormy Galilee,<br>
Thou didst walk upon the sea;<br>
And when they beheld Thy form,<br>
Safe they glided through the storm.</p>
<p>Though the sea be smooth and bright,<br>
Sparkling with the stars of night,<br>
And my ship&#8217;s path be ablaze<br>
With the light of halcyon days,<br>
Still I know my need of Thee;<br>
Jesus, Savior, pilot me.</p>
<p>When the darkling heavens frown,<br>
And the wrathful winds come down,<br>
And the fierce waves, tossed on high,<br>
Lash themselves against the sky,<br>
Jesus, Savior, pilot me,<br>
Over life&#8217;s tempestuous sea.</p>
<p>As a mother stills her child,<br>
Thou canst hush the ocean wild;<br>
Boisterous waves obey Thy will,<br>
When Thou sayest to them, &#8220;Be still!&#8221;<br>
Wondrous Sovereign of the sea,<br>
Jesus, Savior, pilot me.</p>
<p>When at last I near the shore,<br>
And the fearful breakers roar<br>
&#8217;Twixt me and the peaceful rest,<br>
Then, while leaning on Thy breast,<br>
May I hear Thee say to me,<br>
&#8220;Fear not, I will pilot thee.&#8221;</p>
