Lord, Save Us, We Perish Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABC DDDE FFGG HHII

Pilot of the soul awakeA
Save us for thy mercies' sakeA
Now rebuke the angry deepB
Save O save thy sinking shipC
-
Stand at the helm our vessel steerD
Mighty on our side appearD
Saviour teach us to descryD
Where the rocks and quicksands lieE
-
The waves shall impotently rollF
If thou 'rt the anchor of the soulF
At thy word the wind shall ceaseG
Storms be hush'd to perfect peaceG
-
Be thou our haven of retreatH
A rock to fix our wav'ring feetH
Teach us to own thy sovereign swayI
Whom the winds and seas obeyI
