    A hymn written by Joseph Irons. (in long meter)

    "Saved by Hope"

    1. Launch'd on a sea where troubled waves,
    With angry tossings swell and foam;
    Tis' gospel hope from shipwreck saves,
    Till time shall waft the vessel home.

    2. When life's contrary winds arise,
    With keen perplexing heavy gales,
    A hope well fix'd above the skies,
    Against the sharpest storm prevails.

    3. Billows of disappointment roll,
    Along the restless tide of time;
    But gospel hope bears up the soul,
    Till an eternal calm shall shine.

    4. Jesus, my hope is fix'd on Thee,
    No calm below do I expect;
    But I am safe, though out at sea,
    Thou wilt not let my soul be wreck'd.
