American Old Time Song Lyrics: 11 Over The Jasper Sea
Theater, Music-Hall, Nostalgic, Irish & Historic Old Songs, Volume 11
OVER THE JASPER SEA.
The sea is wildly tossing.
And often tilled with gloom.
On which we're swiftly crossing
To our eternal home.
Chorus.
Over the sea. over the sea.
Gracious Saviour pilot me;
Over the sea. over the sea.
Over the Jasper sea.
We've many a foe to conquer.
And many a storm to face.
Ere we in heaven anchor
And sing redeeming grace.-Chorus.
Sail on then comrades boldly.
And make God's word your chart,
Do every duty nobly.
With joyful, trusting heart.-Chorus.
We'll set the banner waving,
And guard it with our life;
We'll shout aloud, hosannah.
Victorious is the strife. - Chorus.
