Glory to thee, whose powerful word
Bids the tempestuous wind arise;
Glory to thee, the sovereign Lord
Of air, and earth, and seas, and skies!
Let air, and earth, and skies obey,
And seas thine awful will perform;
From them we learn to own thy sway,
And shout to meet the gathering storm.
What though the floods lift up their voice,
Thou hearest, Lord, our louder cry;
They cannot damp thy children’s joys,
Or shake the soul when God is nigh.
Rear on, ye waves! our souls defy
Your roaring to disturb our rest;
In vain to impair the calm ye try,
The calm in a believers breast.
