A Good Sailor Knows
View ArtistLyrics
[Verse 1] Palm trees bending, sets are heavy Over dams and over levees God just sent a letter For some it breeds anticipation Talk of permanent vacation Wise guys read the weather The Good Book maps the big returning Fire burns, in the heart's a yearning Deeper than the ocean "Surf's up!" cries the sinking swimmers Clouds move in, and the light grows dimmer Resolve in our devotion [Chorus 1] A good sailor knows Which way the wind blows [Verse 2] The Word is heard, the earth is shaking Trouble's stirred, and the waves are breaking o Over every nation But remember, my sons and daughters Jesus walked upon the water And faith is our vocation So we know just where we're heading The map and compass point to heaven No time for indecision (Arr! Arr! Arr! Arr! Arr! Arr!) Though the water's deep, and the wind, it wails Batten down the hatch and set the sails We've got the right provisions [Chorus 1] A good sailor knows Which way the wind blows Ah ha ha ha! [Trombone Solo] [Bridge] In the meantime, we'll be fishers of men And our love line will find them and gently reel them in [Verse 1] Palm trees bending, sets are heavy Over dams and over levees God just sent a letter For some it breeds anticipation Talk of permanent vacation Wise guys read the weather (Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh!) [Chorus] A good sailor knows Which way the wind blows [Chorus] A good sailor knows Which way the wind blows Ah ha ha! [Outro] (A good sailor knows) (A good sailor knows) (A good sailor knows) (A good sailor knows) I think I see land, captain! (A good sailor knows) (A good sailor knows) Dear Lord! Branwell's fallen over the port bow! (A good sailor knows) (A good sailor knows) Does that look like an iceberg to you? (A good sailor knows) (A good sailor knows)
