A Selection of Hymns, Used in the Parish Church, and the Church of the Holy Trinity, Ulverston/Hymn 113

HYMN 113.

The billows swell, the winds are high,
Clouds overcast the wintry sky;
Out of the depths to Thee we call;
Our fears are great, our strength is small.

Oh! gracious God, Thy part perform,
And guide and guard us through the storm,
Defend us from each threat'ning ill,
Control the waves, say "peace, be still!"

Amidst the raging of the sea,
Our souls still hang their hope on Thee;
Thy constant love and faithful care
Support, and save us from despair.
