Lyics

Star of Peace, to wand'rers weary,

Bright the beams that smile on me,

Cheer the pilot's vision dreary,

Far, far at sea,

Cheer the pilot's vision dreary,

Far, far at sea.



Star of Hope, gleam on the billow,

Bless the soul that sighs for thee;

Bless the sailor's lonely pillow,

Far, far at sea.

Bless the sailor's lonely pillow,

Far, far at sea.



Star of Faith, when winds are mocking

All his toil, he flies to thee;

Save him, on the billows rocking,

Far, far at sea.

Save him, on the billows rocking,

Far, far at sea.



Star Divine!  O safely guide him,

Bring the wand'rer home to thee;

Sore temptations long have tried him,

Far, far at sea.

Sore temptations long have tried him,

Far, far at sea.
