Lyrics
My Soul Will Sail Away
© 2003/Tim Keesee/Jay Hammond
(Verse 1)
Life’s been one adventure
I’ve climbed mountains reaching high
Walked across the driest desert
The living water by my side
But, there’s one last adventure
I’m still longing to try
I want to sail on the ocean
When I tell this world good-bye
(Chorus)
‘Cause, my soul will sail away
For my new home on the shore
With the Lord, my Captain
I will sail forever more
When the tide comes rollin’ in
My final journey will begin
Oh, what a beautiful day
When my soul will sail away
(Verse 2)
I’ve dreamed of sailing with the saints
On a ship called, “Redeemed”
Far away to an island
Only angels have seen
I want to sail to that safe haven
Then, lay my anchor down
When my ship comes sailing in
I know I’ll be Glory bound
(Repeat Chorus)
(Instrumental Break)
What a beautiful day…
When my soul sails away…
(Verse 3)
I want to sail the lakes and rivers
And across the seven seas
I want to sail on the precious blood
The Lord shed for me
When I reach that golden harbor
And see old mates of mine
My adventures will be over
And, I’ll know my ship’s arrived…
(Tag)
What a beautiful day…
When my soul will sail away…
What a beautiful day…
When my soul sails away…
