Dear Jesus, you a haven are
From life’s tempestuous sea,
All find a refuge in your heart,
Who turn in love to you.

Your name falls sweet on exile's ear,
As music from above,
it stays the mourner's anxious fear,
And tells of naught but love.

The broken heart with healing balm,
Your changeless love can fill,
When you say peace", the winds are calm,
And ev’ry wave is still.

O hope and joy of life’s lone way
May your Sweet peace arise
Which turns the night to blissful day.
And earth to paradise.

Dear Jesus, when death's night shall fall
By all your love so blest,
May longing exiles hear your call,
The weary to their rest.
