Here's most of it but my hearing is bad...

Be Ready to Sail by Pat Alger and Austin Cunningham

In a moment of reflection Looking back upon my life
There were times I changed direction
Letting fortune pass me by
There were seldom second chances
And nothing so profound
As the lesson learned the hard way
That I'll use next time around

Chorus

Be ready to sail
When a big wind comes your way
Be ready to sail
Caste your fate upon the water
Catch a big wave by the tail
And when a big wind comes your way be ready to sail


There are those whose hearts are restless
For a new and different shore
Filled with second guesses
They never climb on board
While those ...........
We've all been ?left behind
Chasing down their destinations over on the other side

Chorus
Be ready to sail
When a big wind comes your way
Be ready to sail
Caste your fate upon the water
Catch a big wave by the tail
When big wave comes your way be ready to sail

repeat chorus

Letting fortune pass me by
There were seldom second chances
And nothing so profound
As the lesson learned the hard way

Chorus

Be ready to sail
When a big wind blows your way
Be ready to sail
Cast your fate upon the water
Catch a big wave by the tail
And when it blows your way, be ready to sail


There are those whose hearts are restless
For a new and different shore
Filled with second guesses
They never climb on board
While those faitha are dying
Leaving their fears behind
Chasing down their destination over on the other side

Chorus

Be ready to sail
When a big wind blows your way
Be ready to sail
Cast your fate upon the water
Get a big wave by the tail
And when the big wind blows your way, be ready to sail

repeat chorus

From Pat Alger's album "Seeds":

BE READY TO SAIL
(Pat Alger and Austin Cunningham)

In a moment of reflection
Looking back upon my life
There were times I changed direction
Letting fortune pass me by
And there were seldom second chances
And nothing so profound
As a lesson learned the hard way
That I'll use next time around

CHORUS
Be ready to sail
When a good wind blows your way
Be ready to sail
Cast your fate upon the water
Catch a big wave by the tail
And when a good wind blows your way, be ready to sail


And there are those whose hearts are restless
For a new and different shore
But filled with second guesses
They never climb on board
While those with faith to guide them
Leave all their fears behind
Chasing down their destination over on the other side

CHORUS
Be ready to sail
When a good wind blows your way
Be ready to sail
Cast your fate upon the water
Get a big wave by the tail
And when a good wind blows your way, be ready to sail

repeat chorus
