We are out on the ocean sailing,
Homeward bound we sweetly glide;
We are out on the ocean sailing,
To a home beyond the tide.
All the storms will soon be over,
Then we’ll anchor in the harbour;
We are out on the ocean sailing,
To a home beyond the tide,
We are out on the ocean sailing,
To a home beyond the tide.
Millions now are safely landed,
Over on the golden shore;
Millions more are on their journey,
Yet there’s room for millions more.
All the storms will soon be over,
Then we’ll anchor in the harbour;
We are out on the ocean sailing,
To a home beyond the tide,
We are out on the ocean sailing,
To a home beyond the tide.
Spread your sails,
while heavenly breezes
Gently waft our vessel on;
All on board are sweetly singing—
Free salvation is the song.
All the storms will soon be over,
Then we’ll anchor in the harbour;
We are out on the ocean sailing,
To a home beyond the tide,
We are out on the ocean sailing,
To a home beyond the tide.
When we all are safely anchored,
We will shout—our trials o’er;
We will walk about the city,
And we’ll sing for evermore.
All the storms will soon be over,
Then we’ll anchor in the harbour;
We are out on the ocean sailing,
To a home beyond the tide,
We are out on the ocean sailing,
To a home beyond the tide.
