The Captain Of My Ship

I know the captain of the ship I'm sailing on.

I know the destination that I'm heading for.

And I pray that the wind is at my back, and the sun is on my face

So I'll see a better land with God's amazing grace.

I'm taking inventory counting up the cost,

And if I keep my eyes on Jesus, I won't get lost.

And I pray that captain of my ship will calm the raging seas.

And lead me to a land where I can truly be free.

There's got to be a better place where my heart can be at rest.

As we ride on the wings of love; all nations will be blest.

There's got to be a better hope when I come to the end of my quest,

And I can lay my head where peaceful waters flow.

My captain says He loves me just the way I am

He'll take me where the lions lay down with the lambs

There's a light that shines from the lighthouse that guides me along my way

Where I'll see a better land where I'll be free some day.

There's got to be a better place where my heart can be at rest.

As we ride on the wings of love; all nations will be blest.

There's got to be a better hope when I come to the end of my quest,

And I can lay my head where peaceful waters flow.
