When Israel out of bondage came,
A sea before them lay;
My Lord reached down His mighty hand,
And rolled the sea away.
Refrain
Then forward still��tis Jehovah�s will,
Though the billows dash and spray.
With a conq�ring tread we will push ahead;
He�ll roll the sea away.
Before me was a sea of sin,
So great I feared to pray;
My heart�s desire the Savior read,
And rolled the sea away.
Refrain
When sorrows dark, like stormy waves,
Were dashing o�er my way,
Again the Lord in mercy came,
And rolled the sea away.
Refrain
And when I reach the sea of death,
For needed grace I�ll pray;
I know the Lord will quickly come,
And roll the sea away.
Refrain
