God Is Working His Purpose Out,
As Year Succeeds To Year;
God Is Working His Purpose Out,
And The Time Is Drawing Near;
Nearer And Nearer Draws The Time,
The Time That Shall Surely Be,
When The Earth Shall Be Filled
With The Glory Of God,
As The Waters Cover The Sea.
From Utmost East To Utmost West,
Wherever Man’s Foot Hath Trod,
By The Mouth Of Many Messengers
Goes Forth The Voice Of God;
Give Ear To Me, Ye Continents,
Ye Isles, Give Ear To Me,
That The Earth May Be Filled
With The Glory Of God,
As The Waters Cover The Sea.
March We Forth In The Strength Of God
With The Banner Of Christ Unfurled,
That The Light Of The Glorious Gospel Of Truth
May Shine Throughout The World:
Fight We The Fight With Sorrow And Sin,
To Set Their Captives Free,
That The Earth May Be Filled
With The Glory Of God,
As The Waters Cover The Sea.
All We Can Do Is Nothing Worth,
Unless God Blesses The Deed;
Vainly We Hope For The Harvest-Tide
Till God Gives Life To The Seed;
Yet Nearer And Nearer Draws The Time,
The Time That Shall Surely Be,
When The Earth Shall Be Filled
With The Glory Of God,
As The Waters Cover The Sea
