Sailing Lifes Tempestuous Sea
THE EVERGREEN SHORE-Charles Hutchunson Gabriel
Sailing Life's Tempestuous Sea
}
Sailing life's tempestuous sea,
We behold beyond the lea
Heaven's bright and evergreen shore,
Where the tempests rage no more.
Chorus Evergreen shore, evergreen shore;
We behold, the evergreen shore,
Evergreen shore, evergreen shore,
Where the tempests rage no more.
Where the billows fiercely roll,
And we fear the treacherous shoal,
Faith beholds the evergreen shore,
Where the storms alarm no more.
Tho' the clouds be dark as night,
Tho' our barque be frail and light,
We shall reach the evergreen shore,
Where all danger will be o'er.
When at last we reach the land,
Where the saints in glory stand,
On the tranquil evergreen shore,
We shall sin and sigh no more.
