Blanket for a Sail - Nilsson

Way out on the ocean

Far beyond the seven seas

There’s a tiny little boat

Faith is keeping her afloat

And a tiny little skipper with his worn and tattered coat

You see the law of the ocean

Says that you shall never fail

Use your heart as a rudder

Faith as a compass

And a blanket for a sail

Sleep for the weary

And dreams for us all

Rest your head on a pillow

And I’ll tell you a tale

Use your heart as a blanket

And a blanket for a sail

Row, row, row your boat gently through a dream

Way out on the ocean

Far beyond the seven seas

There’s a tiny little boat

Faith is keeping her afloat

And a tiny little skipper with his worn and tattered coat

You see the law of the ocean

Says that you shall never fail

Use your heart as a rudder

Faith as a compass

And a blanket for a sail
