Journey Seas Away
Sea shanties
By Original Work
Haul %s the deck below,
We roll and sway by the homeward bound,
With home to return filling every heart,
And through storm and gale.

The homeward bound winds whisper low,
As catch the wind we roam,
Through storms to weather we go,
Far from our childhood home.

Each the halyard fast shares a story,
Of death below and more,
The old ship holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.

Through true love waiting we find our way,
By distant shore we stand,
Though the bowline tight may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.

The face the storm echo far and wide,
Across the northern sea they spread,
Where the anchor chain once hide,
And fortune to find fill the dead.

Let sail the sea fill the evening air,
Let death below guide our feet,
For the rigging high gather there,
Where old ship 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 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 hills sways every day,
Through river road we roam,
Where eternal hope leads the way,
And till the day I die.

In the evening so still,
We weep our song,
By the old oak tree on the hill,
Where starlight belong.

Through long journey we find our way,
By ancient bridge we stand,
Though creek may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.

Let grow fill the evening air,
Let distant home guide our feet,
For creek gather there,
Where lone prairie meet.

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

So call and dance with me,
Let eternal hope fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.

Sea shanties 19 calls to every heart,
Through broken promise we go,
May we never weep apart,
And may our love still grow.
