In ancient days,
when Israel’s host
In darkest bondage lay,
The mighty power of God was shown—
He rolled the sea away.
He rolls the sea away,
He rolls the sea away;
With Jesus ever near,
No foe have I to fear—
He rolls the sea away.
The waves of sin
swept o’er my soul,
Temptations held their sway;
The Lord spoke peace,
and pardon gave—
He rolled the sea away.
He rolls the sea away,
He rolls the sea away;
With Jesus ever near,
No foe have I to fear—
He rolls the sea away.
Though doubts and fears
obscure my path,
With Jesus I will stay—
He’ll keep me near His loving heart,
And roll the sea away.
He rolls the sea away,
He rolls the sea away;
With Jesus ever near,
No foe have I to fear—
He rolls the sea away.
Lord Jesus, when in my last hour
I face t’ward realms of day,
Thy presence then shall pilot me,
And roll the sea away.
He rolls the sea away,
He rolls the sea away;
With Jesus ever near,
No foe have I to fear—
He rolls the sea away.
