He whispered eternity into my soul
And ransomed my spirit at dawn
My body is all that he didn’t make whole
Comes a time when it’s time to sail on

So I pack up my satchel of memories
Heaven knows, you’ve been good company
My steamer is sealed and this passage was paid
By the One who has sent now for me

It’s a voyage that leaves from the port of your heart
With a gentleman’s knock at the door
It’s a lone whistle sounding a welcoming home
You’re sure that you’ve heard once before
It’s a ride on a raft up the River of Light
It’s a call far too sweet to ignore
It’s just a matter of time
‘til time doesn’t matter anymore

So I thank you for coming and seeing me off
This dock is no place for goodbyes
I’m not afraid of the sunset ahead
‘cause I’ve already seen the Son rise
I can’t wait to look in His eyes

It’s a voyage that leaves from the port of your heart
With a gentleman’s knock at the door
It’s a lone whistle sounding a welcoming home
You’re sure that you’ve heard once before
It’s a ride on a raft up the River of Light
It’s a call far too sweet to ignore
It’s just a matter of time
‘til time doesn’t matter anymore
