Sacred Songs and Solos Lyrics
Hymn No.781
First Line: Here below, on life's rough billows,
Here below, on life's rough billows,
'Neath our Saviour's smile,
Let us fight as Christian soldiers----
'Tis but for awhile.
Life's billows cannot harm us.
If our hopes be stayed
On the blessed loving Saviour,
Who our ransom paid !
2 Soon our fighting shall be ended,
Soon shall warfare cease ;
Then, in the celestial city,
We shall reign in peace.
3 Sweet the Name on which forgiven
Sinners love to dwell !
Go ye to the poor and wretched,
And the good news tell.
4 Many, on their bed of anguish,
On this world depend :
Go and point them to the Saviour----
He's the sinner's Friend !
5 Oh, if every guilty sinner
Did the Saviour know,
Then we might exclaim with ghdness,
Heaven's begun below !
6 Let us, while on life's rough billows,
Trust in Him alone;
Then we shall with joy behold Him
On His glorious throne.
