Eb
Upon a wide and stormy sea,
Bb Eb
Thou'rt sailing to eternity,
Eb
And thy great Admiral orders thee:
Bb F Bb
"Sail on! Sail on! Sail on!"
Chorus:
Eb Ab Eb
Sail on! Sail on! The storms will soon be past,
Bb Eb
The darkness will not always last;
Ab Bb F Bb
Sail on! Sail on! God lives! And He commands:
Eb Ab Eb
"Sail on! Sail on!"
2 verse:
Art far from shore, and weary worn,
The sky o'ercast, the canvas torn?
Hark ye! a voice to thee is borne:
"Sail on! Sail on! Sail on!"
3 verse:
Do comrades tremble and refuse
To farther dare the taunting hues?
No other course is thine to choose,
"Sail on! Sail on! Sail on!"
4 verse:
Do snarling waves thy craft assail?
Art powerless, drifting with the gale?
Take heart! God’s Word shall never fail!
"Sail on! Sail on! Sail on!"
