The Lord is thy pilot, you shall not go adrift;
He lighteth your passage across dark channels; And steereth you through the deep waters.
He keepeth your log.
He guideth you by the evening star, for safety's sake.
Yea, though you sail midst the thunders and tempests of life,
You shall fear no peril, for the Lord is with you.
Thy heaven above doth comfort you. And
The vastness of His Sea upholds you.
Surely fair winds and safe harbors shall be found
All the days of thy life; and
Wrapped in God's welcoming love,
You shall reach home port,
Secure forever.
Amen
