BEYOND THE DARK SEA Sung by: W.P. Detherow Recorded in Batesville, AR 8/27/59 Click here to listen to the original recording My day's work is done. I'm watching, I'm waiting For life's sinking sun. The shadows are stretching Far over the lea. Chorus: Then, oh, let me anchor Beyond the dark sea. Beyond the sea, beyond the sea, Then, oh, let me anchor Beyond the dark sea. The cold surging billows That dash at my feet Has lost all their terror, Or music so sweet. The portals of glory Are open for me. (Chorus) |
