“You’re ship is about to sail”
I heard the shipmaster say
It’s time to get on board
The wind is blowing today.

As a sailboat sails oceans deep
It’s propelled by delicate winds.
But should the wind cease to blow
The boat is at a dead end.

If the wind is upon thy back
Then carrying you it now does blow
Farther into the deep
To that which is planned for your soul.

“The wind has shifted!” He calls
The crew must swing then the sails
Adjustments then must be made
The mast must spread out the sails.

It is wise for a sailor to allow
The wind to direct all his course
Or finding He may a lost ship
Shipwrecked after a storm.

The secret is not working against
But capturing the wind as it blows
Keeping in step with it’s path
And sailing wherever it blows.
