Freedom of the Sea

Phillips Craig And Dean · Favorite Songs of All [1998]

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



CHORUS:

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 compass I'll chase my destiny

For I know the words of Your will can set my spirit free

Doubt is saying got to stay

Faith is saying sail away



CHORUS



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



CHORUS



The freedom of the sea....

The freedom of the sea....
