Luke 8:24: To whom but Jesus shall we run

To whom but Jesus shall we run
For refuge in despair?
We make our lost condition known
And waken Him by prayer;
Master, if Thou neglect to hear
Thy poor disciples cry,
If Thou Thy needful help defer,
Now in our sins we die.

Our toiling strength exhausted is.
Our Hope Thou art alone;
Save, or we perish in the' abyss.
Eternally undone:
Our succour in extremity,
Our all-commanding Lord,
Now, now rebuke the winds and sea,
And speak the calm restored.
