Christianity?
Nor swift­ness ’scape, nor cour­age save.
It tells of rocks and dan­ger­ous shoals,
In the cross of Christ I glory,
Tho’ the storms sweep o’er life’s ocean,
Or though the tem­pest’s fie­ry breath
It breaks in piec­es, scat­ters far,
But look to the light of God’s love;

My pi­lot is Je­sus.
Tho’ rag­ing winds may drive thee,
My pi­lot is Je­sus.
All bat­tered by the sea,

For my Jesus has captured my heart.

wreck

Only “wrecked” souls thus can sing;
All the light of sac­red sto­ry
Speed away! the ship is sink­ing,
On a wild and stor­my ocean,
All bruised and sore from the sea of sin;
Who His fools will be?
How shrill the uni­vers­al cry
Cast an­chor ere it be too late;
All the light of sacred story
I my soul have safe­ly an­chored,
In ocean cave still safe with Thee,
end
But look to the light-house ab­ove.
And dis­cord of its an­gry words,
My pi­lot is Je­sus.
Still cling to Him who holds thee in
My pi­lot is Je­sus.
She’s com­ing back to me.
Loud the waves ab­out you roar,
He drew me to Himself,
