When Israel Out of Bondage Came

 

VERSE 1

A sea before them lay;

My Lord reached down His mighty hand,

And rolled the sea away.

 

Reff

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.

 

VERSE 2

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.

 

VERSE 3

When sorrows dark, like stormy waves,

Were dashing o’er my way,

Again the Lord in mercy came,

And rolled the sea away.

 

VERSE 4

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.
