Long My Restless Soul Had Sought
Refuge From The Troubled Sea;
Struggling Vainly Till I Thought
There Was No Repose For Me;
Jesus Whispered ’Mid The Storm,
“Trust Mine Everlasting Arm.”
As My Spirit, Terror-Filled,
Breasted Storm And Tide Alone,
Jesus Came—The Tempest Stilled,
Hushed Its Loud And Angry Moan;
Standing On The Restless Wave,
Reached His Hand My Soul To Save.
Jesus, Master Of The Sea,
Never Let My Vessel Strand;
Keep Me Sheltered In The Lee,
In The Hollow Of Thy Hand,
Free From Storm And Tempest Shock,
Anchored Deeply In The Rock.
Safely By The Rock-Bound Coast,
And The Treacherous Breakers Past,
Guide Me, Lest My Way Be Lost,
Into Heaven’s Port At Last;
Stormy Seas No More I’ll Sail—
Safe At Last Within The Veil.
