Then Wildly rose the gladdenng shout

Body they put the helm about.
And through the surf they flew;

And loud the cheer they gave
As, full in sight, the Beacon Light
Came streaming DER the wave,
And cailv Of the toll they told,
When they were safe on shore
How hearts had sunk and hopes grown cold
Amid the pillows roar
When not a star had shone from far
By rs pale beam TO save
Then. full n sight, the Beacon Light
Came streaming DER the wave,
Thus, IN thr night OF natures gloom,
When sorrow bows The heart
When cheering hopes no more Hume,
And prospects all Depart
Then from altar there shone star,
