Out on life’s ocean with perils ever nigh,
I have a pilot on whom I can rely;
With Him to guide me, life’s storms I can defy,
’Tis Christ of Ga­li­lee.

Refrain

He is my pilot on life’s stormy sea,
This wondrous man of Ga­li­lee;
I’m safe in His keeping,
Tho’ storms are round me sweeping,
This pilot of Ga­li­lee.

Wondrous His power and matchless is His skill,
Billows and tempests obey His sovereign will.
Hushed into silence at His blest Peace, be still,
This man of Ga­li­lee.

Refrain

Fierce was the tempest once raging in my soul,
When of my bark He, my pilot, took control.
With voice commanding above the thunder’s roll,
This man of Ga­li­lee.

Refrain

Hear it, ye storm-tossed, upon the sea of sin,
Why will ye not take the heav’nly pilot in?
Safely He’ll guide you the haven blest to win,
This man of Ga­li­lee.
