1. Jesus, Savior, pilot me
  Over life's tempestuous sea;
  Unknown waves before me roll,
  Hiding rock and treacherous shoal;
  Chart and compass come from Thee;
  Jesus, Savior, pilot me.
2. 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."
  Wondrous Sov'reign of the sea,
  Jesus, Savior, pilot me.
3. Though death's valley I may pass,
  Still Thy grace will fear surpass;
  In Thy presence I will rest,
  And, while leaning on Thy breast,
  I will hear Thee say to me,
  "Fear not, I will pilot thee."
