Mark 6:47: Jesus shall I always be
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 10 (1871)
Religion
Jesus shall I always be
A frail bark amidst the sea,
Labouring against wind and tide.
All these storms of life to' outride,
Toss'd and destitute of aid,
Compass'd round with darkest shade,
Yielding to temptation's power.
Trembling lest the deep devour!
