Come, roll over me!

My sins they are many
Their stains are so deep
And bitter the tears
Of remorse that I weep
But useless is weeping
Thou great crimson sea,
Thy waters can cleanse me
Come, roll over me!

My tempers are fitful
My passions are strong,
They bind my poor soul
And they force me to wrong
Beneath thy blest billows
Deliverance I see,
O come, mighty ocean
And roll over me!

Now tossed with temptation
Then haunted with fears,
My life has been joyless
And useless for years
I feel something better
Most surely would be
If once thy pure waters
Would roll over me.

O ocean of mercy
Oft longing I've stood
On the brink of thy wonderful
Life-giving flood!
Once more I have reached
This soul-cleansing sea,
I will not go back
Till it rolls over me.

The tide is now flowing
I'm touching the wave,
I hear the loud call
Of the mighty to save
My faith's growing bolder
Delivered I'll be
I plunge ‘neath the waters
They roll over me.

And now, hallelujah!
The rest of my days
Shall gladly be spent
In promoting his praise
Who opened his bosom
To pour out this sea
Of boundless salvation
For you and for me.
