Far Away, Beyond The Sea,
Where The Fields Are Bright And Fair,
There’s A Call, A Plaintive Plea;
I Must Hasten To Be There.
Let Me Go, I Cannot Stay,
‘Tis The Master Calling Me;
Let Me Go, I Must Obey;
Native Land, Farewell To Thee.
Hark! I Hear The Master Say,
“Up, Ye Reapers! Why So Slow?”
To The Vineyard Far Away,
Earthly Kindred, Let Me Go.
Just Beyond The Rolling Tide
The Uplifted Hand I See;
Lo! The Gates Are Open Wide,
And The Lost Are Calling Me.
Father, Mother, Sister Dear,
I Must Bid You All Adieu;
Hark! The Call Is Sounding Clear,
There’s A Work For Me To Do.
Bear Me On, Thou Restless Sea,
Let The Winds The Canvas Swell;
Affric’s Shore I Long To See,
Native Land, Farewell, Farewell.
