Hymns - Over the Line - Текст песни

1. Oh, 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.?
 
 * Refrain 1-3:
 ?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?
 2. ?But my sins are many, my faith is small?;
 Lo! the answer came quick and clear:
 ?Thou needest not trust in thyself at all,
 Step over the line, I'm here.?
 3. ?But my flesh is feeble,? with tears I said,
 ?And the way I cannot see;
 I fear if I try I may sadly fail,
 And thus may dishonor Thee.?
 4. The world is so cold that 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.
 
 * Refrain 4:
 ?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.
