I was captured from my home and brought across the sea The sky was dark as were the hearts that’d break apart my family Are you still missing me like I’d went missing yesterday Every morn it feels I’m wrenched away anew from you Upon these hills I was enslaved and told I must obey There was promised death to those who’d run And as I lay on freezing ground the stars looked cold and strange I am a prisoner far from home in a land that’s not my own There is nothing I can see That resembles any plan that’s meant to be Chorus: But every morn a new sun rises And I can choose to see the light or turn away And though my heart is breaking for my home Help me look to find the good that’s in today Though when I’m alone there echo stories of my youth And tales of one who died and rose again When Joseph was in Egypt’s land he wasn’t there alone It makes me wonder if I have a friend, who sees to my end (Chorus) Lord I know in this wide world my part is very small Yet in this tale I’ve still a role to play Though my faith is fragile it’s the one thing I have left So I will try to follow where your footsteps go, on this clouded road There is something you can see That will change me to the person I should be (Chorus) Christ be before me Christ beside me Christ beneath me Christ above me Christ all around me Christ where it’s too dark to see Christ be within me Upholding my soul (Italicized lyrics adapted from St. Patrick’s Breastplate)

The Helmsman 05:08
The barque of my life sails along Amid the dark and shadows of the night I am sailing 'pon high seas And I can see no shore The slightest storm would bring me death Engulf my boat in swirling depths If not for you watching my step At each and every instant Chorus: Sail on, sail on Sail on along Fear not the storms or the evil one For God will guide your hand Sail on, sail on Sail on along Fix your course and remain strong Sail on Dread and terror does abound But in my soul is peace profound Tis deeper than the lowest ground For souls with you won’t perish Though hosts of dangers are made clear None of them are ones I fear I gaze upon the stars and steer And bravely on I sail (Chorus) Bridge: Amid the roaring waves I sail And gaze like a child without fear Because of you Lord Jesus you’re my light Thus for the ship of my life to sail So gently through the screaming storms You must be my helmsman O my God And if I reach most dire straits With waves so high my grave awaits I’ll then cry out and to my place You’ll walk o’er the water Then your hand will cover mine We’ll steer the ship and tighten the line All power strength and love are thine I know you’ll see me through (Chorus)
