Jesus, Savior, Pilot Me

1. Jesus, Savior, pilot me Over life’s tempestuous sea; Unknown waves before me roll, Hiding rock and treacherous shoal; Chart and compass came from Thee; Jesus, Savior, pilot me.

2. Jesus, Savior, anchor me; Hold me still ‘midst raging sea. Let my soul to Thee be bound; Keep me safe though storms surround. Lest I drift away from Thee, Jesus, Savior, anchor me.

3. As a mother stills her child, Thou canst hush the ocean wild; Boisterous waves obey Thy will When Thou say’st to them, “Be still!” Wondrous Sovereign of the sea, Jesus, Savior, pilot me.

4. When at last I near the shore, And the fearful breakers roar ‘Twixt me and the peaceful rest, Then, while leaning on Thy breast, May I hear Thee say to me, “Fear not; I will pilot thee.”
