Here we are on a quest for another world For a place far away many thousands of miles 'Cause this land is united with misery With my hands I shall build a new life to live Raging seas and stormy skies Many starved and many died But hear I don't have any fear Sail away set sail for the heavenly bay Never again will you cry Sail away the future looks brighter today Save all your prayers for America For America Life was tough with no pride or no dignity People fled to this land of glory and gold And they built and they formed the land of the free Guess you all know the rest of the story Father father come and see The new horizon finally We're here the salvation is near Sail away set sail for the heavenly bay Never again will you cry Sail away the future looks brighter today Save all your prayers for America For America For America In my dreams I think of you again The place were I learned how to climb You will always be my heart and my soul It's the only prayer I know But now this is my home My home Now sail away set sail for the heavenly bay Never again will you cry Sail away the future looks brighter today Save all your prayers for America Sail away set sail for the heavenly bay Never again will you cry Sail away the future looks brighter today Save all your prayers for America For America For America
