Lyrics
Sail Away Intro: I wish I could heal the whole wide world. Hold my hand, lets pray for the world. Verse 1: I know you feel burdened and alone, But you've got to stay hopeful and strong. I know that its hard to move on, What if I told you of a place where you belong? A place no eyes have ever seen, A place no mind can conceive. Chorus: Lets sail away from the troubles of this world, Well sail away into realms of joy. Lets sail away where the sun wont go down, Lets sail away where we dance in the light. Sail away, sail away, yeah, Sail away, sail away! Verse 2: Theres a promise made not long ago, Whoever prevails will wear the crown. The Son of Man walked the earth below, And for our sake, He died and rose. Whoever believes will be saved; let those with ears then hear. *Chorus* Outro: Higher! Higher and higher, We will soar higher, higher and higher. Higher! Higher and higher, Like the eagles, higher, higher and higher. Copyright 2024 Richard Shekari Produced by Richard Shekari
