222. Just Beyond the Rolling Sea

1 There are many little children who are sad
For a ray of gospel light they never had;
But the saddest of them all, it seems to me,
Must be those who dwell beyond the rolling sea.

Refrain:
Just beyond the rolling sea,
Just beyond the rolling sea;
Shall not someone go and tell the gospel story
Unto those who dwell beyond the rolling sea?

2 Oh, their idol worship gives them not a song,
And we never hear their laughter all day long,
For the love of Jesus has not set them free,
And they know Him not beyond the rolling sea. [Refrain]

3 I am glad that something each of us can do,
To assist the Chinese and the Hindus, too;
And the Japanese and others that may be
Without Jesus, just beyond the rolling sea. [Refrain]
