Through Tempest's Fiery Breath
Rocked in the cradle of the deep
I lay me down in peace to sleep
Secure I rest upon the wave
For Thou, O Lord! hast power to save
I know Thou wilt not slight my call
For Thou dost mark the sparrow's fall
And calm and peaceful shall I sleep
Rocked in the cradle of the deep
When in the dead of night I lie
And gaze upon the trackless sky
The star-bespangled heavenly scroll
The boundless waters as they roll
I feel Thy wondrous power to save
From perils of the stormy wave
Rocked in the cradle of the deep
I calmly rest and soundly sleep
And such the trust that still were mine
Though stormy winds swept o'er the brine
Or through the tempest's fiery breath
Roused me from sleep to wreck and death
In ocean cave, still safe with Thee
The gem of immortality
And calm and peaceful shall I sleep
Rocked in the cradle of the deep
I lay me down in peace to sleep
Secure I rest upon the wave
For Thou, O Lord! hast power to save
I know Thou wilt not slight my call
For Thou dost mark the sparrow's fall
And calm and peaceful shall I sleep
Rocked in the cradle of the deep
When in the dead of night I lie
And gaze upon the trackless sky
The star-bespangled heavenly scroll
The boundless waters as they roll
I feel Thy wondrous power to save
From perils of the stormy wave
Rocked in the cradle of the deep
I calmly rest and soundly sleep
And such the trust that still were mine
Though stormy winds swept o'er the brine
Or through the tempest's fiery breath
Roused me from sleep to wreck and death
In ocean cave, still safe with Thee
The gem of immortality
And calm and peaceful shall I sleep
Rocked in the cradle of the deep
