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.
CHORUS 1
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.
(chorus 1)
And when I return to the mainland,
I`ll take the treasure back with me.
CHORUS 2
I`ll go sailing out to Treasure Island,
The Treasure Island that God`s word can be;
Ill 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.
