There is a Sea

Author: L. K. Z. Appears in 23 hymnals Topics: The Christian Responsibility; The Christian Responsibility First Line: There is a sea which day by day Lyrics: 1 There is a sea which day by day Receives the rippling rills, And streams that spring from wells of God, Or fall from cedared hills; But what it thus receives it gives With glad unsparing hand: A stream more wide, with deeper tide, Flows on to lower land. 2 There is a sea which day by day Receives a fuller tide; But all its store it keeps, nor gives To shore nor sea beside; It’s Jordan’s stream, now turned to brine, Lies heavy as molten lead; Its dreadful name doth e’er proclaim That sea is waste and dead. 3 Which shall it be for you and me, Who God’s good gifts obtain? Shall we accept for self alone, Or take to give again? For He who once was rich indeed Laid all His glory down; That by His grace our ransomed race Should share His wealth and crown. Used With Tune: [There is a sea which day by day]
