What Heavenly Music Songtext
von The Vocal Union

What heavenly music steals over the sea!
Entrancing the senses like sweet melody!
′Tis the voice of the angels born soft on the air
For me they are singing; their welcome I hear


On the banks of old Jordan, here gazing I stand
And earnestly longing, I stretch forth my hand
Send a convoy of angels, dear Jesus I pray!
Let me join that sweet music; come, take me away

Though dark are the waters and rough is the wave
If Jesus permit, the wild surges I'll brave
For the heavenly music hath ravished me so
I must join in that! I′ll go! let me go!
I must join in that! I'll go! let me go!
