1 I’m sailing o’er life’s restless sea,
To where the many mansions be;
From all my fears my head was free
When the Pilot came on board.

Refrain:
I’m sailing on, I’m bound for home,
I laugh at ocean’s spray and foam;
I trust His kill, obey His word,
Since the Pilot cam on board.

2 He came in answer to my pray’r
And guides me t’ward the haven fair;
I found myself relieved of care,
When the Pilot came on board. [Refrain]

3 His coming did not still the storm
But took away all fear of harm,
I trusted in His mighty arm,
When the Pilot came on board. [Refrain]

4 I saw the breakers, crested white,
Arising in unconscious might,
But still I knew ‘twould all be right
When the Pilot came on board. [Refrain]
