Refrain: Over the sea of time, Cometh a song sublime, Tenderly sweet the chime of voices; Voices of grateful song, Echo the news along, Calling the earth while heaven rejoices. 2 Hark, a glad chorus rings. Praise to the King of kings, Joyfully now his work progressing; Over the land and sea. Tell of his grace so free, Carry the news of endless blessing. Oh, tell of the deep, flowing fountain, Oh, tell of the robes white and fair; The feast, for the sinner returning, The home, and the glad welcome there.
