Chorus
Sailing over the ocean grand
Sights set beyond what I can see
I am the captain of this here ship
Steering with the words that flee
Flee out of a joyous heart
On course for prosperity
A life cradled in safety
A life with no fear
Knowing that I’m not alone
That Jesus is here
Oceans roll, and seabirds cry
Songs fragrance the wind
As white sails mirror the clouds
A new life begins
I’m on the ship of wellness
Abundantly free
Sickness is tossed overboard
Bye captivity
Chorus
Sailing over the ocean grand
Sights set beyond what I can see
I am the captain of this here ship
Steering with the words that flee
Flee out of a joyous heart
On course for prosperity
And I declare I am rich
Rich in God’s mercy
And I declare I am healed
Grave clothes out to sea
I sail through the trials of life
Sheltered in His arms
Picturing the grand old ship
Safe from every harm
Yes, free to sail wherever
His Spirit does lead
No bondage to weigh me down
Healing is decreed
Chorus
Sailing over the ocean grand
Sights set beyond what I can see
I am the captain of this here ship
Steering with the words that flee
Flee out of a joyous heart
On course for prosperity
