SABBATH SCHOOL 4 stanzas with Refrain |
"Over the line," hear the sweet refrain;
Angels are chanting the heavenly strain; "Over the line"-Why should I remain With a step between me and Jesus?
O tender and sweet was the Father's voice
As He lovingly called to me, "Come over the line, it is only a step; I'm waiting, My child, for thee."
"But my sins are so many, my faith so small"
Lo! the answer came quick and clear, "Thou needest not trust in thyself at all; Step over the line. I'm here."
"But my flesh is so feeble," with tears I said,
"And the pathway I cannot see; I fear if I try I may sadly fail, And thus dishonor Thee."
The world is so cold I cannot go back,
Press forward I surely must; I'll lay my weak hand in His wounded palm, Step over the line and trust.
"Over the line," hear the sweet refrain;
Angels are chanting the heavenly strain; "Over the line"-I will not remain, I'll cross it and go to Jesus. 4 stanzas with Refrain Copyright permission not yet secured.
