I am sailing in the boat of faith,
Journeying toward the city of Zion.
Looking to Jesus, the Author and Leader of my faith,
I am traveling toward the land of eternal rest.
1
Even when waves crash against my boat,
I have not the slightest reason to worry.
The Lord who made the sea and the whole earth
Is right beside me as my refuge.
2
Though I face many trials and much pain,
The Lord is with me.
As I keep my heart focused on Him,
I forget my weariness and continue on my journey.
3
Even in the valley of the shadow of death,
Jesus is my refuge.
With a tender and compassionate heart,
He holds my hand and faithfully leads me
Until the very end.
4
One day I will reach my home in heaven,
And on that day every tear will be gone.
I will describe His countless blessings
And fall at His feet in worship and gratitude.
