From the hea­then far away—
From the hea­then far away—
Over the roll­ing sea!
My Lord reached down His migh­ty hand,
He saith in His mer­cy to you and to me,
start

Tho’ for a while on this earth I may be,
There we’ll live eter­nal­ly
Our Je­sus walks where the wrecks wash in,

Over and ov­er I said I would doubt no more;

The sea

List! a voice we must ob­ey,
List! a voice we must ob­ey,
There with­out Je­sus the mill­ions I see;
Then for­ward still—’tis Je­ho­vah’s will,
Into the sea, Cal­va­ry’s sea,
Nations wait in ago­ny;
This world of care and things un­seen,
And wrapped it like a man­tle round the globe;
Trusting my Sav­ior as pi­lot and guide,
Home at last be­yond the sea,
As each comes in on the rush­ing tide,
Whose word the stor­my winds ful­fill,
In bound­less waves that cleanse from sin,
