Breathe me home across the sea
Let me know You go with me
Fill my sails with gales of faith
Please guide my way
I am Yours from stern to bow
Charted course, a sacred vow
Winds of change, adventure bring
My soul will sing
Sailing onward
In Your wind, Lord
Spirit, breathe me where You
will me be
New beginnings, journeys ending
On I’ll sail until You breathe
me home
Raise the mast of ministry
A cross to claim Your people free
Fill my sails with gales of grace
To give away
I am joyful and amazed
Miracles abound in waves
Winds of change, fulfillment bring
My soul will sing
Sailing onward
In Your wind, Lord
Spirit, breathe me where You
will me be
New beginnings, journeys ending
On I’ll sail until You breathe
me home
Draw my keel along life’s breadth
Let me fathom mercy’s depth
Fill my sails with gales of hope
Hold me afloat
I am tired and tempest-tossed
Yet Your love won’t leave me lost
Winds of change, my solace bring
My soul will sing
Sailing onward
In Your wind, Lord
Spirit, breathe me where You
will me be
New beginnings, journeys ending
On
I’ll sail until You breathe me home
