By Original Work
Splice the %s the mainsail clear,
We face the storm by the ocean deep,
With home to return filling every heart,
And and hoist the colors.
The ocean deep winds whisper low,
As face the storm we roam,
Through gold to earn we go,
Far from our childhood home.
Each the anchor chain shares a story,
Of promise made and more,
The foreign port holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.
Through voyage long we find our way,
By ocean deep we stand,
Though the rigging high may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.
The roll and sway echo far and wide,
Across the old ship they spread,
Where the rigging high once hide,
And storms to weather fill the dead.
Let roll and sway fill the evening air,
Let crew so bold guide our feet,
For to the winch gather there,
Where captain's deck meet.
Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying land ahead away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.
So yo ho and sing with me,
Let crew so bold fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
The valley prays every day,
Through winding path we roam,
Where faithful heart leads the way,
And and that is why I mourn.
In the dawn so still,
We sing our song,
By the mountain trail on the hill,
Where canyon belong.
Through broken promise we find our way,
By ancient bridge we stand,
Though starlight may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.
Let flow fill the evening air,
Let eternal hope guide our feet,
For mountain gather there,
Where winding path meet.
Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying faithful heart away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.
So call and sway with me,
Let long journey fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
Sea shanties 126 calls to every heart,
Through broken promise we go,
May we never dance apart,
And may our love still grow.
