Steady, brother, steady, though the storm winds rise, And darkness gather o'er you and it veil your skies; Keep your course unwavered, and be brave, be true; Fear not while the Master holds the helm with you. Refrain Steady, steady, though clouds veil the sky; Steady, steady, though waves roll high; Steady, steady, be brave, be true; Fear not while the Master holds the helm with you. Steady, brother, steady, though the wild waves sweep, Your barque will ride in safety, for He rules the deep; Waves shall not o'erflow you while the Pilot's near; By the chart He giveth you, your course can steer. Refrain Steady, brother, steady, look you over there, Beyond the cloud and tempest see, the port lies fair; There within the harbor with the storms all past, You can safely anchor, sheltered safe at last. Refrain
