\nGod is working His purpose out
\nAs year suceeds to year;
\nGod is working His purpose out,
\nAnd the time is drawing near;
\nNearer and nearer draws the time,
\nThe time that shall surely be
\nWhen the earth shall be filled with the glory of God
\nAs the waters cover the sea.<\/p>\n
2
\nFrom utmost east to utmost west,
\nWhere’er man’s foot hath trod,
\nBy the mouth of many messengers
\nGoes forth the voice of God;
\nGive ear to me, ye confinents,
\nYe isles, give ear to me,
\nThat the earth shall be filled with the glory of God
\nAs the waters cover the sea.<\/p>\n
3
\nMarch we forth in the strength of God
\nWith the banner of Christ unfurled,
\nThat the light of the glorious gospel of truth
\nMay shine throughout the world:
\nFight we the fight with sorrow and sin
\nTo set their captives free,
\nThat the earth shall be filled with the glory of God
\nAs the waters cover the sea.<\/p>\n
4
\nAll we can do is nothing worth
\nUnless God blesses the deed;
\nVainly we hope for the harvest tide
\nTill God gives life to teh seed;
\nYet nearer and nearer draws the time,
\nThe time that shall surely be,
\nWhen the earth shall be filled with the glory of God
\nAs the waters cover the sea.<\/p>\n
