162a. We are out on the ocean sailing

1 We are out on the ocean sailing,
Homeward bound we sweetly glide;
We are out on the ocean sailing,
To a home beyond the tide.

Refrain:
All the storms will soon be over,
Then we'll anchor in the harbor;
We are out on the ocean sailing,
To a home beyond the tide.

2 Millions now are safely landed,
Over on the golden shore;
Millions more are on their journey,
Yet there's room for millions more. [Refrain]

3 Spread your sails while heavenly breezes
Gently waft our vessel on;
All on board are sweetly singing—
Sweet salvation is the song. [Refrain]
