Sail on
When the water gets high
Sail on
When the wind starts to die
Sail on
It's just a matter of minutes
Till His ship comes to get us
And we'll all get in it
When we're all born
We set out to sea
Looking for answers continuously
Then when we find out
To Him we belong
We watch for the signs
And keep sailing on
Sail on
When the water gets high
Sail on
When the wind starts to die
Sail on
It's just a matter of minutes
Till His ship comes to get us
And we'll all get in it
Cast up your sails
And let the wind blow
Jesus will never
Let your ship lose control
Just keep your compass set on the Son
And He'll guide you safely
To His beautiful Home
We can't afford to throw our lives
To the wind
To the wind
We've got the Lord
In control of our ship
And He'll guide us safely in
He'll guide us in
Sail on
When the water gets high
Sail on
When the wind starts to die
Sail on
It's just a matter of minutes
Till His ship comes to get us
And we'll all get in it
(repeat)
