<p>God is working His purpose out<br>
As year succeeds to year;<br>
God is working his purpose out,<br>
And the time is drawing near;<br>
Nearer and nearer draws the time,<br>
The time that shall surely be,<br>
When the earth shall be filled<br>
With the glory of God<br>
As the waters cover the sea.</p>
<p>From utmost east to utmost west,<br>
Where&#8217;er man&#8217;s foot hath trod,<br>
By the mouth of many messengers<br>
Goes forth the voice of God:<br>
&#8220;Give ear to Me, ye continents,<br>
Ye isles, give ear to Me,&#8221;<br>
That the earth may be filled<br>
With the glory of God<br>
As the waters cover the sea.</p>
<p>What can we do to work God&#8217;s work,<br>
To prosper and increase<br>
The brotherhood of all mankind,<br>
The reign of the Prince of Peace?<br>
What can we do to hasten the time,<br>
The time that shall surely be,<br>
When the earth shall be filled<br>
With the glory of God<br>
As the waters cover the sea.</p>
<p>March we forth in the strength of God,<br>
With the banner of Christ unfurled,<br>
That the light of the glorious Gospel of truth<br>
May shine throughout the world;<br>
Fight we the fight with sorrow and sin<br>
To set their captives free,<br>
That the earth may be filled<br>
With the glory of God<br>
As the waters cover the sea.</p>
<p>All we can do is nothing worth<br>
Unless God blesses the deed;<br>
Vainly we hope for the harvest-tide<br>
Till God gives life to the seed;<br>
Yet near and nearer draws the time,<br>
The time that shall surely be,<br>
When the earth shall be filled<br>
With the glory of God<br>
As the waters cover the sea.</p>
