Treasure Island

The moon's waving the world goodbye

The morning sun smiles and lights the sky

I hear the waves crashing into shore

The world's an ocean waiting at my door

Before I set out for the open sea

I'll take the word my father's given me

And I'll go sailing out to treasure island

The treasure island that God's word can be

I'll pray and make my way to treasure island

And in those quiet times I know that I will find

All the treasure I will ever need

I raise the sail as I kneel to pray

Check my course all along the way

A million thoughts like the rushing wind

Are blowing this ship so I'll pray again

Soon I have landed on the solid ground

I take my life's concerns and lay them all down

When I go sailing out to treasure island

The treasure island that God's word can be

I'll pray and make my way to treasure island

And in those quiet times I know that I will find

All the treasure I will ever need

And when I return to the mainland

I'll take the treasure back with me

I'll go sailing out to treasure island

The treasure island that God's word can be

I'll go sailing out to treasure island

Guided by the spirit's gentle wind

I'll pray and make my way to treasure island

And when the new day starts, I'll take my longing heart

And sail to treasure island once again

I'll go sailing out to treasure island

The moon's waving the world goodbye
