1 Tho’ thy path may lead thro’ the world’s great deep,
Tho’ the billows roll o’er the sea,
Yet thy God has promised his child to keep,
Not a wave shall flow over thee.

Chorus:
Not a wave shall flow over thee,
Not a wave shall flow over thee,
Tho’ the billows roll,
God protects thy soul,
Not a wave shall flow over thee.

2 Tho’ affliction sore to thy soul may come,
Let thy faith like a compass be,
For, although the winds make the sea to foam,
Not a wave shall flow over thee. [Chorus]

3 Do not fear at last, when upon the strand
Thou the river of death shall see,
When with Christ you cross to the heav’nly land,
Not a wave shall flow over thee. [Chorus]
