Four winds

By the blessings of love
By the blessings of life
By the blessings of light
May we win

By the sun in the sky
By the stars way up high
This boat is sailing home
On four winds

Four winds
Four winds
From the earth
And from the sky
From the water
And from the fire
Four winds
Four winds

Comin’ home
Comin’ home
I hear the call
Deep within
May she rise
Upon the tide
May she sail home
Upon four winds

I understand the signs
Yeh, the freedoms & the prisons
I’m writin’ all the rhymes
And I’m rockin’ all the rhythms
I’m knocking down the walls
And I’m building all the bridges
I’m going where the four winds blow

By the mercy of God
By the mother of love
By the angel Elijah
We will win

By the thunderous waves
By the salt & the spray
This boat is sailing home
On four winds

Four winds
Four winds
From the mountain
And from the moon
From the river
And from the rainbow
Four winds
Four winds

Comin’ home
Comin’ home
She keeps sailin’
On four winds
It don’t matter
Where I’ve been
I’m comin’ home
On four winds

Somewhere in the world
Yeh, and somewhere under heaven
I lost you in the storm
But we’re gonna be together
I’m walkin’ down this road
I’m walkin’ down forever
So tell them that I’m comin’ home

Christ is with me
Christ before me
Christ behind me
Christ is in me
Christ beneath me
Christ above me
Christ in every eye
That sees me

Four winds
Four winds
To the planet
From the source
From the kiss of life
To the heartbeat
Four winds
Four winds

Something in the night
Yeh, there’s something in the ether
I’m walkin’ on the water
And I know I’m gonna see her, and then,
There ain’t nothing gonna
Pull me back down under
No, I’m never going down again

I understand the game
And I understand the mission
Yeh, and I was being fished
When I thought that I was fishin’
I understand the night
And I understand the light
And I’ve come too far to go back now

Lightning on the river
Yeh, and thunder on the mountain
I’ll meet you on the corner
Where the hungry wolves are howlin’
There are heroes on the highway
There are angels at the altar
And I know which way I’m gonna go

I understand the signs
Yeh, the freedoms & the prisons
I’m writing all the rhymes
And I’m rockin’ all the rhythms
I’m knocking down the walls
And I’m building all the bridges
And I’m going where the four winds blow
