Down by the Sea

By Eliza H. Morton

BY ELIZA H. MORTON.
Down by the sea, the wide, deep sea, Our Saviour walked, Down by the Sea of Galilee He preached and talked.
Sad were the hearts, the weary hearts, That came to him, Sweet was the word the people heard Through shadows dim.
Glad was the song, the happy song, That Love gave birth: “Glory to God, glory to God, Good-will on earth.”
Down by the sea where all must go The boatman pale Stands on the shore, and evermore Cries out, “All hail!”
Down by the sea, the wide, deep sea— Jesus the same, Ready to save from the dark, cold grave, Praise to his name.
North Deering, Me.
