The sails are ready to glide the waves
The sun is shining as freedom craves
The boat is no longer docked but untied
Ready to sail in waters unsupervised
The sky is clear with only a few clouds
The weather is perfect with no large crowds
It’s time to go and sail the deep
In faith, believing with one giant leap
With Jesus as the master, you can’t go wrong
His direction will carry with every life song
There’s no need for discretion, Jesus sees ahead;
He already knows where you’re being led
The gentle breezes will be your peace
You’ll never lack, for his love won’t cease
Provisions also are taken care of
He’s the Lord with a heart full of love
There are places to go and work to be done
For Jesus is the ministry; it’s all about God’s Son
Now there are many vessels across this sea
All being led by the one who sets captives free
There may be some choppy waves and smooth sailing
But the Lord sees it all, as his goodness is trailing
The weather conditions are right as God says, “Go!”
His hand of protection covers the seed you sow
Life to the full is what Jesus gives
To every believer declaring, “Jesus lives!”
It’s a good plan God has for you
It’s a worry-free adventure with lots to do
Faith and trust are what it takes
To reach your goal with the armor it makes
The shore will be in view and always visible
Even on days when cloudy weather may be miserable
I love that the Lord never leaves
Quietness and confidence each soul receives
Strength for the journey to meet every need
As we read the Bible, with every promise we heed
Get ready for adventure — no need to fear
The Lord will guide you; he won’t be far but near
Don’t worry about your steps; you’re on the right track
And the Lord, whom you love, will always have your back
