I know I need a boat
To cast upon the sea
To bind the broken waves
That seek to cover me
And I, I need to travel
And who will be my guide
Upon the open deep?
And who will speak my way
When other voices sleep?
For I, I need to travel

The time has come for me to
Sail away, sail away, sail away, sail away
When I am far from home
And look towards the bough
Will you be resting there
And listening for me
To call you as I travel?

For you are all I seek
And in my pilgrim heart
There is a longing deep
To hear the words you hold
For me upon my journey

The time has come for me to
Sail away, sail away, sail away, sail away
To the island.
