Sailing Away

THE WATERS

ARE SMOOTH

AND SAILING SEEMS

SO EASY

BUT THINGS

HAVEN'T ALWAYS

BEEN THIS WAY

FOR I HAVE SEEN

THE BILLOWS ROLL

IT BROUGHT STORM

CLOUDS TO MY SOUL

JESUS HAS ALWAYS

BEEN MY STAY

I'M SAILING AWAY

ON THE OLD SHIP

OF ZION

SAILING

TO THAT HOMELAND

OF THE SOUL

FRIENDS AND

LOVED ONES

ARE WAITING

TO WELCOME ME YONDER

I'M SAILING

TO MY HEAVENLY HOME

4 BAR

BREAK

WELL I CANNOT

COMPLAIN

MY TRIP

HAS BEEN A GOOD ONE

BUT I KNOW

I MUST

BE NEARING

THAT SHORE

I CAN ALMOST

SEE THE LIGHT

FROM MY MANSION

SO BRIGHT

AND JESUS IS STANDING

AT THE DOOR

WELL I'M

SAILING AWAY

ON THE OLD SHIP OF ZION

SAILING

TO THAT HOMELAND

OF THE SOUL

FRIENDS AND LOVED ONES

ARE WAITING

TO WELCOME

ME YONDER

I'M SAILING

TO MY HEAVENLY HOME

OH I'M SAILING AWAY

ON THE OLD SHIP

OF ZION

SAILING

TO THAT HOMELAND

OF THE SOUL

FRIENDS AND LOVED ONES

ARE WAITING

TO WELCOME

ME YONDER

I'M SAILING

TO MY HEAVENLY HOME

I'M SAILING

TO MY

HEAVENLY HOME
