1 Tossed on the wide tempestuous sea,
With numerous wants oppressed,
How welcome must the harbor be,
Of safety and of rest!
2 Such is the world of bliss to those,
Who shall an entrance find;
There storms and tempests, fears and foes,
No more distress the mind.
3 There saints, nor sin nor sorrow know,
But taste unmingled love;
All that they wished or hoped below,
They now enjoy above.
