Sail Me Away Songtext

Words and Music by Terry Scott Taylor, Jerry Parker Chamberlain ©1977 Maranatha! Music 3rd man: (Tenderly to his wife) My love, I had a dream last night I saw a rider on the wind A stranger to my eyes Was on the outside lookin' in And the land he's longing for Is on a dim and distant shore Of my life My love, I heard a pilgrim's call I saw it was forsaking all I cried because I knew (yes I know) It meant my leaving you But the riches that I gain Outweigh the losses that remain In my life (To the Lord) Chorus: Sail me away (I want to go with you) Sail me away (sail away, sail away, sail away) (Repeat three times) (To his wife) My love the man is older now Yet wisdom was the guiding light That led him on to foreign lands (far away) Though he's never left your side And the treasure that I bare Is now all I seek to share In my life Repeat chorus --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
