[Verses]
L1: Mas - ter, the tem - pest is | rag - ing! The | bil - lows are toss - ing | high! The | sky is o'er - sha - dowed with | black - ness, No | shel - ter or help is | nigh; | Car - est Thou not that we | per - ish? | How canst Thou lie a | sleep, When each | mo - ment so mad - ly is | threat - ening A | grave in the ang - ry | deep?
L2: Mas - ter, with an - guish of | spir - it I | bow in my grief to | day; The | depths of my sad heart are | trou - bled; Oh, | wak - en and save, I | pray! | Tor - rents of sin and of | ang - uish | Sweep o'er my sink - ing | soul; And I | per - ish! I per - ish! dear | Mas - ter; Oh, | hast - en, and take con - | trol!
L3: Mas - ter, the ter - ror is | o - ver, The | el - e - ments sweet - ly | rest, Earth's | sun in the calm lake is | mir - rored; And | heav - en's with - in my | breast; | Ling - er, O bless - ed Re - | deem - er! | Leave me a - lone no | more; And with | joy I shall make the blest | har - bor, And | rest on the bliss - ful | shore.

They | all shall sweet - ly o - | bey Thy will, | Peace, peace, be | still!
