Jesus, Saviour, Pilot Me

(PILOT. 7,7,7,7,7,7)

Edward Hopper, 1871

John E. Gould, 1871

1. Jesus, Saviour, pilot me
   Over life's tempestuous sea ;
   Unknown waves before me roll,
   Hiding rock and treacherous shaol;
   Chart and compass come from thee;
   Jesus, Saviour, pilot me.
   
2. As a mother stills her child,
   Thou canst hush the ocean wild;
   Boisterous waves obey thy will
   When thou says't to them, 'Be still.'
   Wondrous Sovereign of the sea,
   Jesus, Saviour, pilot me.
   
3. When at last I near the shore,
   And the fearful breakers roar
   Twixt me and the peaceful rest,
   The, while leaning on thy breast,
   May I hear thee say to me,
   'Fear not, I will pilot thee.' Amen.
