Master, The Tempest Is Raging!
The Billows Are Tossing High!
The Sky Is Overshadowed With Blackness,
No Shelter Or Help Is Nigh;
Carest Thou Not That We Perish?
How Canst Thou Lie Asleep,
When Each Moment So Madly Is Threatening
A Grave In The Angry Deep?

The Winds And The Waves Shall Obey Thy Will,
Peace, Be Still!
Whether The Wrath Of The Storm-Tossed Sea,
Or Demons Or Men, Or Whatever It Be,
No Waters Can Swallow The Ship Where Lies
The Master Of Ocean, And Earth, And Skies;
They All Shall Sweetly Obey Thy Will,
Peace, Be Still! Peace, Be Still!
They All Shall Sweetly Obey Thy Will,
Peace, Peace, Be Still!

Master, With Anguish Of Spirit
I Bow In My Grief Today;
The Depths Of My Sad Heart Are Troubled—
Oh, Waken And Save, I Pray!
Torrents Of Sin And Of Anguish
Sweep O’er My Sinking Soul;
And I Perish! I Perish! Dear Master—
Oh, Hasten, And Take Control.

Master, The Terror Is Over,
The Elements Sweetly Rest;
Earth’s Sun In The Calm Lake Is Mirrored,
And Heaven’s Within My Breast;
Linger, O Blessed Redeemer!
Leave Me Alone No More;
And With Joy I Shall Make The Blest Harbor,
And Rest On The Blissful Shore.
