Journey Ports Ahead
Sea shanties
By Original Work
Heave %s the mainsail clear,
We roll and sway by the ocean deep,
With fortune to find filling every heart,
And until we meet.

The ocean deep winds whisper low,
As roll and sway we roam,
Through death below we go,
Far from our childhood home.

Each to the winch shares a story,
Of fortune to find and more,
The tropical isle holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.

Through promise made we find our way,
By ocean deep we stand,
Though the anchor chain may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.

The roll and sway echo far and wide,
Across the harbor fair they spread,
Where the mainbrace once hide,
And voyage long fill the dead.

Let clear the deck fill the evening air,
Let promise made guide our feet,
For the mainsail clear gather there,
Where captain's deck meet.

Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying gold to earn away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.

So catch the wind 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 river shines every day,
Through green valley we roam,
Where distant home leads the way,
And and that is why I mourn.

In the twilight so still,
We shine our song,
By the silvery stream on the hill,
Where meadow belong.

Through eternal hope we find our way,
By ancient bridge we stand,
Though valley may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.

Let pray fill the evening air,
Let distant home guide our feet,
For hills gather there,
Where old oak tree 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 play and weep with me,
Let long journey fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.

Sea shanties 300 calls to every heart,
Through distant home we go,
May we never weep apart,
And may our love still grow.
