Jesus, Saviour, Pilot Me
(words Edward Hopper, music J.E.Gould)

Jesus, Saviour, pilot me
Over life's tempestuous sea
Unknown waves before me roll
Hiding rock and treach'rous shoal.
Chart and compass came from Thee
Jesus, Saviour, pilot me.

As a mother stills her child
Thou canst hush the ocean wild;
Boist'rous waves obey Thy will
When Thou say'st to them, "Be still!"
Wond'rous sovereign of the sea
Jesus, Saviour, pilot me.

When at last I near the shore
And the fearful breakers roar
'Twixt me and the peaceful rest
Then, when leaning on thy breast
May I hear thee say to me,
"Fear not, I will pilot thee."
