Text: | "Land ahead!" its fruits are waving |
Tune: | SAFE WITHIN THE VAIL |
Composer: | J. M. Evans |
1 "Land ahead!" its fruits are waving
O'er the hills of fadeless green,
And the living waters laving
Shores where heav'nly forms are seen.
Chorus:
Rocks and storms I'll fear no more,
When on that eternal shore;
Drop the anchor! furl the sail!
I am safe within the vail!
2 Onward bark! the cape I'm rounding;
See the blessed wave their hands;
Hear the harps of God resounding
From the bright immortal bands. [Chorus]
3 Now we're safe from all temptaiton,
All the storms of life are past;
Praise the Rock of our salvation,
We are safe at home at last. [Chorus]
