Standing on the shoreline
Looking out to sea
At oceans of Your hopes for me
Just beyond my reach
I've been here on this island
For way too many years
A prisoner of my comfort
A slave to my own fear
Doubt is saying got to stay
Faith is saying sail away
I know it's safe here on the shore
But freedom is worth dying for
Liberation comes to those
Who hear the truth and sail with You
I'll go where You are calling me
I'll be what You meant me to be
I know the risk is real
But I wanna feel
The freedom of the sea
With eyes to the horizon
Mist against my face
I'll leave behind this island
In Your abounding grace
With Your word as my compa**
I'll chase my destiny
For I know the winds of Your will
Can set my spirit free
Doubt is saying got to stay
Faith is saying sail away
I know it's safe here on the shore
But freedom is worth dying for
Liberation comes to those
Who hear the truth and sail with You
I'll go where You are calling me
I'll be what You meant me to be
I know the risk is real
But I wanna feel
The freedom of the sea
Doubt is saying got to stay
But I'm taking up the anchor
Faith is saying sail away
And I'm heading for the deep
I know it's safe here on the shore
But freedom is worth dying for
Liberation comes to those
Who hear the truth and sail with You
I'll go where You are calling me
I'll be what You meant me to be
I know the risk is real
But I wanna feel
The freedom of the sea
The freedom of the sea....
The freedom of the sea....
