Lyrics Sailing With Russell - Chris Rice

Standing on the edge of the dock
With the wind in our faces
Been watching 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
Laughing with heaven

When I'm sailing with Russell
It's like I'm walking on the water
And floating in the freedom
And thanking the Saviour

Now a couple of years have gone by
Filled with some crazy days
Been sailing 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 talking about sailing

Catching the wind from the good times
Filling our sails with the memories
Feeling the tide carry us back
Out to the deep simplicity

And I'm sailing with Russell
Chasing that heartbeat
Playing on sunshine
Laughing with heaven

When I'm sailing with Russell
It's like I'm walking on the water
And floating in the freedom
And thanking the Saviour
