Boundless Salvation

O bound­less sal­va­tion! deep ocean of love

O full­ness of mer­cy

Christ brought from ab­ove

The whole world re­deem­ing

so rich and so free

Now flow­ing for all men

now flow­ing for all men

Now flow­ing for all men

come

roll ov­er me!

My sins they are ma­ny

their stains are so deep

And bit­ter the tears of re­morse that I weep;

But use­less is weep­ing; thou great crim­son sea

Thy wa­ters can cleanse me

Thy wa­ters can cleanse me

Thy wa­ters can cleanse me

come

roll ov­er me!

My tem­pers are fit­ful

my pass­ions are strong

They bind my poor soul and they force me to wrong;

Beneath thy blest bil­lows de­liv­er­ance I see

O come

migh­ty ocean

O come

migh­ty ocean

O come

migh­ty ocean

and roll ov­er me!

Now tossed with temp­ta­tion

then haunt­ed with fears

My life has been joy­less and use­less for years;

I feel some­thing bet­ter most sure­ly would be

If once thy pure wa­ters

if once thy pure wa­ters

If once thy pure wa­ters would roll ov­er me.

O ocean of mer­cy

oft long­ing I’ve stood

On the brink of thy won­der­ful

life giv­ing flood!

Once more I have reach­èd this soul cleans­ing sea

I will not go back

I will not go back

I will not go back till it rolls ov­er me.

The tide is now flow­ing

I’m touch­ing the wave

I hear the loud call of the Migh­ty to Save;

My faith’s grow­ing bold­er

de­liv­ered I’ll be;

I plunge ’neath the waters

I plunge ’neath the wa­ters

I plunge ’neath the waters

they roll ov­er me.

And now

hal­le­lu­jah! the rest of my days

Shall glad­ly be spent in pro­mot­ing His praise

Who op­ened His bo­som to pour out this sea

Of bound­less sal­va­tion

of bound­less sal­va­tion

Of bound­less sal­va­tion for you and for me.
