<p>The mercy of God is an ocean divine,<br>
|
|
A boundless and fathomless flood.<br>
|
|
Launch out in the deep, cut away the shore line,<br>
|
|
And be lost in the fullness of God.</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Launch out, into the deep.<br>
|
|
Oh let the shore line go.<br>
|
|
Launch out, launch out in the ocean divine,<br>
|
|
Out where the full tides flow.</p>
|
|
<p>But many, alas! only stand on the shore,<br>
|
|
And gaze on the ocean so wide.<br>
|
|
They never have ventured its depths to explore,<br>
|
|
Or to launch on the fathomless tide.</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
|
|
<p>And others just venture away from the land,<br>
|
|
And linger so near to the shore<br>
|
|
That the surf and the slime that beat over the strand<br>
|
|
Dash o’er them in floods evermore.</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
|
|
<p>Oh, let us launch out on this ocean so broad,<br>
|
|
Where floods of salvation o’erflow.<br>
|
|
Oh, let us be lost in the mercy of God,<br>
|
|
Till the depths of His fullness we know.</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
