"En
Voyage"
There's a
ship sailing on to a harbor,
To a haven
of comfort and rest;
It's a
ship of God's fashion and making
And its
voyage by Him will be blest.
It
departed with silence and beauty,
With the
Master, Himself, in command;
As with
dignity truly majestic
It sailed
out of sight of all land.
There will
always be clear skies above it;
There will
always be calmness below;
There will
never be storms to harass it,
For the
Master is on it, you know,
And His
wisdom will carry it safely
To the
port of His infinite peace,
Where the
light of His love will protect it,
With a
blessing that will never cease.
You have
watched it sail onward and outward,
With a
tear of regret in your eye,
For a
loved one was sailing upon it,
And
there's grief when you're saying goodbye,
But your
tears would be tears of rejoicing,
And your
heart will be happy and free,
If you
could look for only a moment
On that
ship that is sailing to sea.
For the
one you have loved is at leisure,
With no
worry or trouble or care;
There's
contentment beyond understanding,
In the way
of God's passengers fare.
And you'd
know from your own observation
That the
sailing was joyful - not grim,
For it
means a new life and new living,
And a
sweet, closer contact with Him.
Oh, the
solace there is in the knowledge,
Life is
life and it always will be,
And it's
simply a change of direction
When we
sail on His ship out to sea.
And the
tears that we shed for our loved ones
Are in
truth shed for us left behind,
For it
hurts to give up to the Master
Though we
know He is gentle and kind.
So believe
in His great and good wisdom,
Trust in
Him as you patiently wait;
Oh His
ship God is ever the pilot,
And the
one you have loved is the mate.
