117. C. M. Bulfinch.

Christ Walking on the Sea.

1 Lord, in whose might the Saviour trod

The dark and stormy wave,

And trusted in his Father's arm,

Omnipotent to save;

2 When darkly round our footsteps rise

The floods and storms of life,

Send Thou Thy Spirit down to still

The dark and fearful strife.

3 Strong in our trust, on Thee reposed,

The ocean-path we'll dare,

Though waves around us rage and foam,

Since Thou art present there.
