In sail­ing life’s sea I have no­thing to fear,
Tho’ tem­pests are toss­ing me high,
If on­ly the voice of my Sav­ior I hear:
Come, be of good cheer, it is I.

Refrain

Though tri­als my strength may defy,
For help un­to Je­sus I cry,
And when I am tempt­ed, or dan­ger is near,
I’ll trust Him and be of good cheer.

Tho’ for­tune may fail me and health may de­cline,
Tho’ oth­ers turn back to dis­may,
I’ll cling to my Sav­ior and ne­ver re­pine,
And He will not cast me away.

Refrain

No dan­gers ap­pall when my Sav­ior is near,
And when I am sum­moned on high,
My heart will re­joice if I on­ly can hear,
Come, be of good cheer, it is I.

Refrain
