Song of the Sea

 
There is a song that beckons me
To shore, where all is wide and free;
Where meets the awesome sea with sky
Which soothes the souls of such as I!

Tho' ocean is a noisome thing
If we but listen, it will sing;
In such a lulling winsome way
To little children while at play.

I wonder, as joys I see
If Jesus, while on Galilee;
Could witness seagulls in their flight
Which is a soul-uplifting sight!

For we should never once forget
 The God who fashions even yet;
All wonders of the sea and shore
That we might praise Him evermore!
