Crystal Sea

There is a mountain and on it a fountain

That flows continually from a rugged tree.

To follow it's course You must go to its source

It flows from the cross of Calvary

On to the shores of eternity

And empties itself into the crystal sea.

Almighty glory flows

Almighty glory shows  itself abroad.

Oh the mercy and grace that covers me

Almighty glory flows

Almighty glory grows

As it makes its way  unto the crystal sea.

There is no tempest there

No shipwrecks, no despair

The peaceable fruit of righteousness abides

There is no feat that we should drown

There where we cast down our crowns

As we walk the water there at Jesus side.

There is a river that flows on forever

And it sweeps us up within its flowing stream

On and on it will run until the journey is done

The mighty righteous river of the redeemed

Flows on to the shores of eternity

And empties itself into the crystal sea.

They say it's not the destination

But the journey that is key

But my home and my salvation

Is at its end

So I must disagree.

Almighty glory flows

Almighty glory shows  itself abroad.

Oh the mercy and grace that covers me

Almighty glory flows

Almighty glory grows

As it makes its way  unto the crystal sea.
