Sailing Home

We are sail­ing o’er the surg­ing tide

To a home where joys ne’er die;

Trusting Je­sus on­ly as our guide

We shall reach it by and by.

Sailing home! we’re sail­ing home;

By and by we’ll an­chor there;

Sailing home! we’re sail­ing home!

Life’s un­fad­ing crown to wear.

We are sail­ing to that hap­py shore

Where is felt no grief nor pain;

Meeting there our loved ones gone be­fore

We shall nev­er part again.

Sailing home

we swift­ly on­ward sweep

Cheered by Heav­en’s bea­con light;

Jesus guides us safe­ly o’er the deep

To that hav­en calm and bright.
