I
I MAY BE ON A TRAIN, I MAY BE ON A PLANE.
WHEN I HEAR MY FINAL CALL.
I MAY BE ON THE GROUND WHEN I HEAR THE TRUMPET SOUND
IT REALLY DOESN'T MATTER AT ALL
I MAY BE ON A TRIP I MAY BE ON A SHIP
BUT NO MATTER WHERE I ROAM
ON THE LAND OR ON THE SEA PROTECTED I WILL BE
I KNOW I'LL SAIL AWAY HOME.
CHORUS
I'LL SAIL AWAY HOME
SAIL AWAY HOME SAIL AWAY HOME
I'LL LEAVE THIS WORLD BEHIND
I'LL LEAVE THIS WORLD BEHIND
I'LL SAIL AWAY HOME
SAIL AWAY HOME SAIL AWAY HOME
TO HEAVEN I WILL CLIMB
HEAVEN I WILL CLIMB
OH I CAN HARDLY WAIT TO STEP INSIDE THE GATE
SEE MY JESUS ON HIS THRONE
SOMEDAY BY AND BY IN THE TWINKLING OF AN EYE
I KNOW I'LL SAIL AWAY HOME.
II
IT MAY BE NIGHT OR NOON IT MAY BE VERY SOON
HE'LL COME LIKE A THIEF IN THE NIGHT
HE'LL COME WITH ALL HI POWER IT COULD BE ANY HOUR
WHEN I TAKE MY FINAL FLIGHT
I'LL SAIL AWAY WITH EASE FASTER THAN ANY BREEZE OR ASTRONAUT
YOU KNOW
THE TIME IS VERY NEAR SOON JESUS WILL APPEAR
AND THEN I'LL SAIL AWAY HOME.
