Sailing with Russell - Chris Rice

Standing on the edge of the dock

With the wind in our faces

Been watchin' the waves roll in

And it feels like we’re sailing

Now Russell chimes in with his youthful imagination

«What if we saw him there

Walking out on the water?»

No time for splashing around in shallow theology

He just invited us out into the deep simplicity

And I’m sailing with Russell

Chasing that heartbeat

Playing on sunshine

Laughin' with heaven

When I’m sailing with Russell

It’s like I’m walkin' on the water

And floatin' in the freedom

And thankin' the Savior

Now a couple of years have gone by

Filled with some crazy days

Been sailin' our separate ways

Across the blue ocean

But the Good Wind brought us around

And time made us older

But not on the inside

We’re still talkin' 'bout sailin'

Catchin' the wind from the good times

Fillin' our sails with the memories

Feelin' the tide carry us back out to the deep simplicity

And I’m sailing with Russell

Chasing that heartbeat

Playing on sunshine

Laughin' with heaven

When I’m sailing with Russell

It’s like I’m walkin' on the water

And floatin' in the freedom

And thankin' the Savior
