Lyrics
Verse 1
The winds and billows loudly roar we flounder in the deep
Our bark is frail, far off the shore, and Jesus is asleep.
Verse 2
"Save us, we perish, Lord," they cry; to Thee we fly for aid;
"Awake! awake!" they say; but why so faithless and afraid?
Verse 3
His head is pillow'd on the stern, as Man He is asleep;
As God He all things does discern, and endless vigils keep.
Verse 4
He does the elements control; by His Almighty Will.
The angry waves their surges roll; and at His Word are still.
Verse 5
O ye, who in the Church's Bark o'er life's rough ocean sail,
When all around is drear and dark, and human efforts fail,
Verse 6
Touch not, with rude, irreverent hands, and coward faithlessness,
Him, who the winds and waves commands; but wait in quietness.
Verse 7
O never, never when distressed, to doubtful means resort;
Christ's Bark, when on the billow's crest, is safe as in the port....
