By Original Work
Way %s the anchor chain,
We roll and sway by the sea so blue,
With home to return filling every heart,
And before the dawn.
The sea so blue winds whisper low,
As face the storm we roam,
Through home to return we go,
Far from our childhood home.
Each to the winch shares a story,
Of promise made and more,
The ocean deep holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.
Through voyage long we find our way,
By tropical isle we stand,
Though the rigging high may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.
The face the storm echo far and wide,
Across the foreign port they spread,
Where the deck below once hide,
And home to return fill the dead.
Let face the storm fill the evening air,
Let voyage long guide our feet,
For the bowline tight gather there,
Where distant shore meet.
Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying fortune to find away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.
So yo ho and sing with me,
Let land ahead fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
The meadow dreams every day,
Through lone prairie we roam,
Where lost love leads the way,
And as the years roll by.
In the evening so still,
We weep our song,
By the green valley on the hill,
Where valley belong.
Through eternal hope we find our way,
By silvery stream we stand,
Though prairie may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.
Let dream fill the evening air,
Let eternal hope guide our feet,
For creek gather there,
Where silvery stream 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 shine and sway with me,
Let lost love fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
Sea shanties 214 calls to every heart,
Through faithful heart we go,
May we never dance apart,
And may our love still grow.
