Hymn
I Know Who Pilots Me
Words: Rowe, James, 1865-1933
When angry waves about me roll, And hide my path across life’s sea, No fear alarms my trusting soul, For well I know who pilots me.
Refrain
Yes, well I know who pilots me, Across life’s ever-troubled sea; The winds may rave and waves may swell, While Jesus pilots, all is well.
Day after day, tho’ tossed about, And often dang’rous rocks I see, There comes to me no fear nor doubt, For well I know who pilots me. [Refrain]
Tho’ each new day brings trials sore, Tho’ rougher still the ocean be, I know that I shall reach the shore, For well I know who pilots me. [Refrain]
My Saviour’s love still guides me on, My only chart and compass he; I’ll trust him till the journey’s done, For well I know who pilots me. [Refrain]
