[Out on an ocean all boundless we ride]
Homeward Bound (Warren)
Author: William Fairfield Warren Appears in 256 hymnals First Line: Out on an ocean all boundless we ride Lyrics: 1. Out on an ocean all boundless we ride,
We’re homeward bound, homeward bound;
Tossed on the waves of a rough, restless tide,
We’re homeward bound, homeward bound;
Far from the safe, quiet harbor we rode,
Seeking our Father’s celestial abode;
Promise of which on us each He bestowed:
We’re homeward bound, homeward bound.
2. Wildly the storm sweeps us on as it roars,
We’re homeward bound, homeward bound;
Look! yonder lie the bright heavenly shores:
We’re homeward bound, homeward bound;
Steady, O pilot! stand firm at the wheel;
Steady! we soon shall outweather the gale;
Oh, how we fly ’neath the loud creaking sail!
We’re homeward bound, homeward bound.
3. Into the harbor of Heav’n now we glide;
We’re home at last, home at last;
Softly we drift on its bright silver tide;
We’re home at last, home at last;
Glory to God! all our dangers are o’er;
We stand secure on the glorified shore;
Glory to God! we will shout evermore:
We’re home at last, home at last; Used With Tune: [Out on an ocean all boundless we ride] Text Sources: Second Advent Hymn Book, by Phineas A. Smith (New York: Smith & Clough, 1850)
Homeward Bound (Warren)
We live as pilgrims and strangers below
Appears in 18 hymnals Lyrics: 1 We live as pilgrims and strangers below,
We're homeward bound, homeward bound,
Though often tempted, yet onward we go,
We're homeward bound, homeward bound,
Trials and crosses we cheerfully bear,
Toils and temptations expecting to share,
We hasten forward content with the fare,
We're homeward bound, homeward bound.
2 Earth, with its trifles, we all have resigned,
We're homeward bound, homeward bound,
Heav'n, with its glories, we shortly shall find,
We're homeward bound, homeward bound,
Sinful amusements no longer are dear,
O, how delusive and vain they appear,
While to our home, we are drawing so near,
We're homeward bound, homeward bound.
3 We'll tell the world as we journey along,
We're homeward bound;
Try to persuade them to enter our throng,
We're homeward bound;
Come, trembling sinner, forlorn and opprest,
Join ye our number, O come and be blest,
Journey with us to the mansions of rest,
We're homeward bound.
4 Soon we'll be singing, if faithful we prove,
We're home at last;
Sounding in triumph, in mansions above,
We're home at last;
Soon as our toils and temptations are o'er,
Up to our home with the blest we shall soar,
O how we'll shout as we enter the door,
We're home at last. Used With Tune: HOMEWARD BOUND

Send Us The Light
Author: Charles S. Brown Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: Over the ocean there cometh a cry Lyrics: 1 Over the ocean there cometh a cry,
“Send us the light, send the light;
Needy and helpless we perish and die,
Send us the light, send the light;
Come with your message of love o’er the wave,
Tell us of Jesus, the mighty to save,
Tell how He triumphed o’er sin and the grave,
Send us the light, send the light.
2 “Here in the darkness and shadow we grope,
Send us the light, send the light;
Seeking for light and the comfort of hope,
Send us the light, send the light;
Millions there are who have never been told
Aught of the wonderful story of old,
Aught of the beautiful city of gold,
Send us the light, send the light.
3 "You who have comforts enough and to spare,
Send us the light, send the light;
You who have known the most bountiful care,
Send us the light, send the light;
Yours is the duty, to you we appeal,
Give of your treasure, your knowledge reveal,
Tell us of Him who can comfort and heal,
Send us the light, send the light."
4 Still comes the cry with its burden of tears,
"Send us the light, send the light";
Melting our hearts and unlocking our ears,
"Send us the light, send the light";
Master, forgive us the long sordid past,
Out of our selfishness lifted at last,
May we be ever, where life’s lot is cast,
Bearers of light, bearing light. Used With Tune: [Over the ocean there cometh a cry] Text Sources: The King's Praises (Boston: United Society of Christian Endeavor, 1899)

Author of "Homeward Bound" in Many Voices; or, Carmina Sanctorum, Evangelistic Edition with Tunes In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.
