Over That Jasper Sea

Over the tide of that jas­per sea

Softly a sweet voice is call­ing to me;

Loving and ten­der

be­seech­ing its tone

Dearly be­lov­ed

O why long­er roam?

Calling

call­ing

yes

call­ing for me

Over the tide of that jas­per sea;

Calling

call­ing

yes

call­ing for me

Over the tide of that jas­per sea.

Over the tide of that jas­per sea

Softly the ac­cents are plead­ing with me;

Pleading so gent­ly in mu­sic­al tone

Dearly be­loved

O why long­er roam?

Over the tide of that jas­per sea

Cometh a vi­sion of beau­ty to me;

Angels are beck­on­ing a-down from the dome

Dearly be­loved

O why long­er roam?
