Hope is an anchor, and love is a ship Time is the ocean and life is a trip You don't know where you're going Til you know where you're at And if you can't read the stars Well you better have a map A compass and a conscience so you don't get lost at sea Around some lonely island, no one wants to be
From the beginning of creation, I think our maker had plan For us to leave these shores and sail beyond the sand And let the good light guide to the waves and the wind To the beaches and a world where have never been And we'll climb upon a mountain, y'all we'll let our voices ring Those who've never tried IT, they'll be the first to sing
CHORUS: Woah My My I'll see you on the other side If I make it And it might be a long hard ride But I'm gonna take it Sometimes it seems I don't have a prayer Let the weather take me anywhere But I know I wanna go Where the streets are gold Cause you'll be there
Oh my my
You don't bring nothing with you here And you can't take nothing back I ain't never seen a hearse, with a luggage rack So I've torn my knees from praying Scarred my back from falling down Spent so much time flying high, til I'm face first in the ground So if you're up there watching me, can you talk to God and say, Tell him I might need a hand to see YOU BOTH someday
