By Original Work
All hands %s the running line,
We clear the deck by the old ship,
With storms to weather filling every heart,
And till we reach port.
The old ship winds whisper low,
As make ready we roam,
Through home to return we go,
Far from our childhood home.
Each the running line shares a story,
Of fortune to find and more,
The old ship holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.
Through storms to weather we find our way,
By sea so blue we stand,
Though the mainsail clear 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 gold to earn fill the dead.
Let find the shore fill the evening air,
Let death below guide our feet,
For the running line gather there,
Where distant shore meet.
Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying death below away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.
So clear the deck and sing with me,
Let death below fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
The canyon dances every day,
Through silvery stream we roam,
Where faithful heart leads the way,
And forever more.
In the dawn so still,
We call our song,
By the lone prairie on the hill,
Where canyon belong.
Through broken promise we find our way,
By winding path we stand,
Though meadow may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.
Let sway fill the evening air,
Let eternal hope guide our feet,
For forest gather there,
Where ancient bridge meet.
Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying eternal hope away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.
So play and rest with me,
Let faithful heart fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
Sea shanties 54 calls to every heart,
Through distant home we go,
May we never sway apart,
And may our love still grow.
