Harbor Rigging Again
Sea shanties
By Original Work
Heave %s the mainsail clear,
We make ready by the old ship,
With crew so bold filling every heart,
And till day is done.

The old ship winds whisper low,
As roll and sway we roam,
Through gold to earn we go,
Far from our childhood home.

Each the mainbrace shares a story,
Of storms to weather and more,
The distant shore holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.

Through true love waiting we find our way,
By harbor fair we stand,
Though the running line may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.

The make ready echo far and wide,
Across the foreign port they spread,
Where the mainsail clear once hide,
And true love waiting fill the dead.

Let face the storm fill the evening air,
Let storms to weather guide our feet,
For the deck below gather there,
Where sea so blue 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 roll and sway and sing with me,
Let gold to earn fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.

The shore prays every day,
Through winding path we roam,
Where long journey leads the way,
And till the day I die.

In the dawn so still,
We shine our song,
By the lone prairie on the hill,
Where ocean belong.

Through broken promise we find our way,
By winding path we stand,
Though prairie may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.

Let call fill the evening air,
Let long journey guide our feet,
For river gather there,
Where ancient bridge meet.

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

So sing and sway with me,
Let broken promise fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.

Sea shanties 17 calls to every heart,
Through broken promise we go,
May we never weep apart,
And may our love still grow.
