The stormy winds are bearing me;
Tho’ fierce and wild the surges roar,
They’ll bear me all, the sooner o’er.
Refrain:
Beyond the sea, the boundless sea,
My Saviour’s hand is leading me;
Whate’er of ill or pain I bear,
His tender love is with me there.
2 Above the clouds and storms of life
Above its care, its toil and strife,
My Saviour’s Cross I see afar,
My beacon Light, my guiding Star. [Refrain]
3 Beyond the sea, the raging sea,
There is a home reserved for me;
The light that gems my Saviour’s brow
With glory gilds, my pathway now. [Refrain]
4 Across the sea, the restless sea,
My onward course shall brighter be,
Though ocean waves may loudly roar,
They’ll bear me all the sooner o’ver. [Refrain] Topics: Heaven Scripture: Revelation 21:1 Tune Title: [Beyond the sea, life's boundless sea]
