The Boat Sails



I will say farewell my friend
The leaves fall
And blow through an autumn park.
Through life’s turbulence
Your boat sets sail for a distant shore.
I know that my boat will sail one day
I hear Blind Willie Johnson singing,
Come with me to that land
Come with me to that land.

I will celebrate your spirit
As the spring blossom opens
And flowers appear in a springtime park.
In the cool breeze
Your boat sails on calm water
My boat will sail too one day,
I hear Blind Willie Johnson singing,
We will meet Jesus in that land
We will meet Jesus in that land.

One day
I will celebrate the memories,
Your personality,
The conversations we had,
The beauty of friendship.

But for now I will shed a tear
As your boat sails to a distant shore
I will believe
That you will meet Jesus there.

I pray that I too will meet Jesus
On the day my boat sets sail
For that distant shore.
GOD Bless
May your soul find rest.
