Hope is an anchor

And love is a ship

Time is the ocean

And life is a trip

You don't know where you're goin'

'Til you know where your at

And if you can't read the stars

Well you'd better have a map

A compus and a conscious

So you don't get lost at sea

Lonesome old lonely island

Where no one wants to be

From the beginning of creation

I think our maker had a plan

For us to leave these shores

And sail beyond the sand

And let the good light guide us

To the waves and the wind

To the beaches in a world

Where we've have never been

And we'll climb upon the mountain y'all

We'll let our voices ring

And those who've never tried it

They'll be the first to sing

Oh my my

I'll see you on the other side

If I make it

And it might be a long hard ride

But I'm gonna take it

Sometime it seems that

I don't have a prayer

Let the weather take me anywhere

But I know that I want to go

The streets are gold

'Cause you'll be there

Oh my my

You don't bring nothin' with you here

And you can't take nothin' back

I ain't never seen a hearse

With a luggage rack

So I've torn my knees a-prayin'

Scared my back from fallin' down

Spent so much time flyin' high

'Til I'm face first in the ground

So if you're up there watchin' me

Would you talk to God and say

Tell him I might need a hand

To see you both someday

Oh my my

So I'll see you on the other side

If I make it

And it may be a long hard ride

But I want to take it

Sometime it seems that

I don't have a prayer

Let the weather take me anywhere

But I know that I want to go

Where the streets are gold

'Cause you'll be there (you'll be there)

Oh my my

'Cause you'll be there (you'll be there)

Oh my my
