Lyrics

The river of Thy grace is flow­ing free,
We launch up­on its depths to sail to Thee;
In the ocean of Thy love we soon shall be,
We are sail­ing to eter­ni­ty.

Refrain

Earthly joys can­not com­pare with all the glo­ry,
When our long­ing eyes shall see Thy face;
We shall have Thy fel­low­ship for­ev­er,
In the splen­dor of the throne of grace.

The breez­es of Thy love are blow­ing free,
They tell Thy love to all hu­ma­ni­ty;
They are sing­ing of the blood of Cal­va­ry,
Making white through all eter­ni­ty.

Refrain

Thy Spir­it calls to all, Come home to­day;
Come back and find the Sav­ior while you may;
Find that Je­sus is the life, the truth, the way,
Leading, guid­ing to eter­ni­ty.
