Thou rulest the raging of the sea.
Psalm 89:9.
Lord! whom winds and seas obey,
Guide us through the watery way;
In the hollow of thy hand
Hide, and bring us safe to land.
2 Jesus! let our faithful mind
Rest, on thee alone reclined;
Every anxious thought repress;
Keep our souls in perfect peace.
3 Keep the souls whom now we leave;
Bid them to each other cleave:
Bid them walk on life’s rough sea;
Bid them come by faith to thee.
4 Save, till all these tempests end,
All who on thy love depend;
Waft our happy spirits o’er,
Land us on the heavenly shore.
C. Wesley.
