Hymns - The Stranger of Galilee - Текст песни

# In fancy I stood by the shore, one day,
Of the beautiful murm'ring sea;
I saw the great crowds as they thronged the way
Of the Stranger of Galilee;
I saw how the man who was blind from birth,
In a moment was made to see;
The lame was made whole by the matchless skill
Of the Stranger of Galilee.
 

 * Refrain 1-3:
 And I felt I could love Him forever,
 So gracious and tender was He!
 I claimed Him that day as my Savior,
 This Stranger of Galilee.

# His look of compassion, His words of love,
They shall never forgotten be;
When sin-sick and helpless He saw me there,
This Stranger of Galilee;
He showed me His hand and His riven side,
And He whispered, ?It was for thee!?
My burden fell off at the pierced feet
Of the Stranger from Galilee.
# I heard Him speak peace to the angry waves,
Of that turbulent, raging sea;
And lo! at His word are the waters stilled,
This Stranger of Galilee;
A peaceful, a quiet, and holy calm,
Now and ever abides with me;
He holdeth my life in His mighty hands,
This Stranger of Galilee.
# Come, ye who are driven and tempest-tossed,
And His gracious salvation see;
He'll quiet life's storms with His ?Peace, be still!?
This Stranger of Galilee;
He bids me to go and the story tell?
What He ever to you will be,
If only you let Him with you abide,
This Stranger of Galilee.
 

 * Refrain 4:
 Oh, my friend, won't you love Him forever?
 So gracious and tender is He!
 Accept Him today as your Savior,
 This Stranger of Galilee
