Author: E. A. H. Hymnal: Praise and Promise #73 (1900) First Line: Upon the shore of Egypt's sea Lyrics: 1 Upon the shore of Egypt’s sea
Stood Israel in dismay,
But God came down in grace and pow’r,
And rolled the sea away.
Refrain:
He rolls the sea away,
He rolls the sea away,
For it is still His sov’reign will
To roll the sea away.
2 Behind them was king Pharaoh’s host,
Before, the waters lay;
God made a pathway thro’ the deep;
He rolled the sea away. [Refrain]
3 The God who wrought in olden time
Is just the same today;
He brings deliv’rance to His own,
And rolls the sea away. [Refrain]
4 It matters not that troubles come
And seem to close the way;
God has the power as of old
To roll the sea away. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Upon the shore of Egypt's sea]
