By the sea

R. Quilter

I stood today by the shimm'ring sea.

Never was wind so mild and free,

The light and the loveliness dazzled me, dazzled me.

The waves did trickle and curve and roll,

They tumbled over my sinful soul,

And the might of their mystery made me whole.

I stood today by the shimm'ring sea.

Never was wind so mild and free,

The light and the loveliness dazzled me, dazzled me.
