Lyrics

O courage, my soul,
And let us jour­ney on,
For tho’ the night is dark,
It won’t be ve­ry long.
O thanks be to God,
The morn­ing light ap­pears,
And the storm is pass­ing over,
Hallelujah!

Refrain

Hallelujah! Hal­le­lu­jah!
The storm is pass­ing ov­er,
Hallelujah!

O bil­lows roll­ing high,
And thun­der shakes the ground,
The light­nings flash,
And tem­pest all around,
But Je­sus walks the sea
And calms the an­gry waves,
And the storm is pass­ing ov­er,
Hallelujah!

Refrain

The stars have dis­ap­peared,
And dis­tant lights are dim,
My soul is filled with fears,
The seas are break­ing in.
I hear the Mas­ter cry,
Be not afraid, ’tis I,
And the storm is pass­ing ov­er,
Hallelujah!

Refrain

Now soon we shall reach
The dist­ant shin­ing shore,
Then free from all the storms,
We’ll rest for­ev­er­more.
And safe with­in the veil,
We’ll furl the riv­en sail,
And the storm will all be ov­er,
Hallelujah!
