Steer Straight to the Light-House

Say

where are you go­ing

my bro­ther

Upon the broad ocean of time?

Are you bound for the land of the bless­èd

A home in fair Ca­naan’s bright clime?

Steer straight to the light­house

my bro­ther

There’s dan­ger up­on the dark wave;

Ask Je­sus to keep and to guide you.

He’s able and will­ing to save.

Be sure that the Sav­ior is with thee

Wherever thy life boat may go;

Should you take your life jour­ney with­out Him

You’ll sink ’neath the bil­lows of woe.

Look not on the lamps that burn dim­ly

But look to the light of God’s love;

Look not on the wrecks by the sea­shore

But look to the light-house ab­ove.
