Fierce and wild the storm is raging
Round a helpess bark,
On to doom 'tis swiftly driving,
O'er the waters dark!
CHORUS:
Joy, behold the Saviour,
Joy, the message hear,
I'll stand by until the morning
I've come to save you, do not fear,
Yes, stand by until the morning,
I've come to save you, do not fear,
Weary, helpless, hopeless seamen
Fainting on the deck,
With what joy they hail their Saviour,
As he hails the wreck !
Chorus
On a wild and storm y ocean,
Sinking neath the wave,
Souls that perish heed the message
Christ has come to save !
Chorus
Daring death thy soul to rescue,
He in love has come,
Leave the wreck and in him trusting,
Thou shalt reach thy home !
Chorus
A-men.
