Author: Clara McAlister Brooks Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #10909 First Line: Over the billows sighing Refrain First Line: Out from the darkness Lyrics: 1 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.
2 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]
3 Hopelessly blind and weeping,
Sowing in sin and reaping,
Reaping its sure reward.
Tell them of Jesus’ dying,
How it doth life afford. [Refrain]
4 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. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Over the billows sighing]
Save, Oh, Save!
