Sail On

Author: Ida A. Hushower Hymnal: The Service of Praise #19 (1900) First Line: Away, away on the sea of life Refrain First Line: Sail on, sail on Lyrics: 1 Away, away on the sea of life, My little boat doth glide; I soon shall land on the other shore, Beyond the swelling tide. Refrain: Sail on, sail on, For soon this life is past; Tho’ tempests beat, we will still sail on, And all be home at last. 2 I sing my song as the days go by; From storms I have no fear; I safely glide on the rolling waves, For Christ my Captain’s near. [Refrain] 3 Perhaps some soul may be sailing near, So weary from life’s race; I’ll sing my song, it may help him bear The conflicts he must face. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Away, away on the sea of life]
