-<poem>
-.
-When thro' the torn sail the wild tempest is streaming,
-When o'er the darkwave the red lightning is gleaming.
-Nor hope lends a ray the poor seaman to cherish,
-We fly to our maker,
-Save, Lord, save, or we perish.
-.
-O Jesus, once rock'd on the breast of the billow,
-Aroused by the shriek of dispair from thy pillow.
-Now seated in glory, the mariner cherish,
-Who cries in his anguish,
-Save, Lord, save, or we perish.
-.
-And O, when the whirlwind of passion is raging,
-When sin in our hearts its wild warfare is waging.
-Then send down thy Spirit, thy redeemed to cherish,
-Rebuke the destroyer,
-Save, Lord, save, or we perish.
