Jesus, at Thy command. [Life a Voyage—Christ the Pilot.] This hymn is in an undated edition of Lady Huntingdon's Collection of Hymns, published at Bath about 1774. It is No. 136, in 7 stanzas of 6 lines. It is also given in Coughlan's 1775 Appendix to J. Bazlee's [q. v.] Select Collection of Psalms & Hymns, No. 311, where it is entitled, "The Believer's Pilot.” In 1776 it reappeared in A. M. Toplady's Psalms & Hymns, No. 312, in De Courcy's Collection, 2nd edition, 1782, and again in later hymn-books. In modern collections it is sometimes attributed to Toplady, and again to De Courcy (q. v.), but in error. It is associated with the Lady Huntingdon Connexion from the first, and is possibly by one of that denomination. A part of this hymn is given in the American Church Pastorals, Boston, 1864, as, "By faith, I see the land." It begins with stanza v., and is taken from Toplady's Psalms & Hymns, as above.
