Goin' Away

I hear a sweet voice calling
From a distant shore
A sound that's so familiar
A sound I've heard before
My ship is set in motion
The sails become my wings
Heaven waits before me
The wind behind me sings

(Goin' away) Goin' away
(Goin' away) Goin' away
Goin' to a new land
They say it's made of gold

I turn for just a moment
Recalling yesterday
But all I see behind me
Are shadows in the haze
Oh, now my ship is racing
Never felt so free
God knows that I'm ready
Oh, and how I long to be

(Goin' away)
Sure as I've been faithful
And heaven draws me near
Sure as that old promise
Is taking me there
(Goin' away) I'm goin' away
Yes, I'm goin' away
Goin' away
Goin' away

Fly, fly, fly, fly
