Over the bil­lows sigh­ing,
Millions in sin are dy­ing,
Dying in sad des­pair.
Point them to Cal­va­ry’s mount­ain,
To the Re­deem­er there.

Refrain

Out from the dark­ness
There comes the sad cry:
Save us, oh, save us,
We per­ish and die.

Glory our way o’er­spread­ing,
Bright is the path we’re tread­ing,
Under a cloud­less sky;
While in their sun­less pri­son
Helpless the hea­then die.

Refrain

Hopelessly blind and weep­ing,
Sowing in sin and reap­ing,
Reaping its sure re­ward.
Tell them of Je­sus’ dy­ing,
How it doth life af­ford.

Refrain

Still is the Sav­ior plead­ing,
Go with the torch of free­dom,
Go with His love aflame!
Love will be­guile the wan­der­er,
Home from his guilt and shame.
