Verse 1

 Well 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' till you know where you're at

 And if you can't read the stars, well you better have a map

 A compass and a conscience so you don't get lost at sea

 Or on some old lonely island where no one wants to be

Repeat Intro:

Verse 2

 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 through the waves and the wind

 To the beaches in a world where we have never been

 And we'll climb up on the mountain, y'all, we'll let our voices ring

 And those who never tried it, they'll be the first to sing

Repeat Intro

Chorus

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

 Sometimes it seems that I don't have a prayer

 Let the weather take me an—-y--where

 But I know that I wanna go where the streets are gold 'cause you'll be there

 Oh my, my

Verse 3

Well 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 up prayin', scarred my back from fallin' down

Spent so much time flyin' high till 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 some day...

Chorus 2

Oh my, my

So I'll see you on the other side, if I make it

And it might be a long hard ride ,but I wanna take it

Sometimes it seems that I don't have a prayer,

Let the weather take me anywhere,

But I know that I wanna go where the streets are gold, 'cause you'll be there

Oh my, my

'Cause you'll be there

Oh my, my

Verse and chorus 2 are same as 1
