Beyond the Sea

William Cushing • English

Primary Scripture: Revelation 21:1

Verse 1

Beyond the sea, life’s boundless sea, The stormy winds are bearing me; Tho’ fierce and wild the surges roar, They’ll bear me all, the sooner o’er.

Chorus

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.

Verse 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.

Chorus

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.

Verse 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.

Chorus

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.

Verse 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.

Chorus

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.
