Full Lyrics
When I had read the sacred lore
Of Jesus’ teaching by the sea,
I slept, and dreamt it o’er and o’er,
And walked with him in Galilee.
Oh Galilee, dear Galilee,
How charming is thy name to me!
Oh Galilee, for evermore
I’ll sing of thee.
How oft my soul had longed to trace
The paths where Jesus loved to be;
Now, in my dreams, I see his face
And walk with him in Galilee.
Oh Galilee, dear Galilee,
How charming is thy name to me!
Oh Galilee, for evermore
I’ll sing of thee.
I walk with him along the shore,
And feel his presence life to me;
I hear his voice, and nevermore
Can I forget thee, Galilee.
Oh Galilee, dear Galilee,
How charming is thy name to me!
Oh Galilee, for evermore
I’d sing of thee.
