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
