Goin’ Away The Imperials

I hear a sweet voice calling
From a distant shore
A sound that's so familiar
A sound I've heard before
My ship is set in motion
The sails become my wings
Heaven waits before me
The wind behind me sings
Goin' away, goin' away

Goin' to a new land
They say it's made of gold

I turn for just a moment
Recalling yesterdays
But all I see behind me
Are shadows in the haze
Whoa-whoa, now my ship is racing
I've never felt so free
God knows that I'm ready
Oh, and how I've longed to be
Goin' away

Sure as I've been faithful
And Heaven draws me near
Sure as that old promise
(Sure as the promise)
Is taking me there
Goin' away, I'm goin' away
