On the Sea of Galilee Songtext

von Carter Family

Am I a soldier of the cross
A follower of the Lamb
And shall I fear to own His cause
Or blush to speak His name

On the sea (the sea, the sea)
Of Galilee (of Galilee)
My Jesus is walking on the sea
On the sea (the sea, the sea)
Of Galilee (of Galilee)
My Jesus is walking on the sea

Must I be carried to the skies
On flowery beds of ease
While others walk to win the prize
And sail through bloody seas

On the sea (the sea, the sea)
Of Galilee (of Galilee)
My Jesus is walking on the sea
On the sea (the sea, the sea)
Of Galilee (of Galilee)
My Jesus is walking on the sea

There shall I bathe my weary soul
In seas of heavenly rest
And not a wave of trouble roll
Across my peaceful breast

On the sea (the sea, the sea)
Of Galilee (of Galilee)
My Jesus is walking on the sea
On the sea (the sea, the sea)
Of Galilee (of Galilee)
My Jesus is walking on the sea
