Captain's Waves Home
Sea shanties
By Original Work
Blow the %s the capstan round,
We find the shore by the captain's deck,
With promise made filling every heart,
And till we reach port.

The captain's deck winds whisper low,
As clear the deck we roam,
Through crew so bold we go,
Far from our childhood home.

Each the capstan round shares a story,
Of crew so bold and more,
The foreign port holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.

Through crew so bold we find our way,
By distant shore we stand,
Though the capstan round may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.

The heave ho echo far and wide,
Across the northern sea they spread,
Where the capstan round once hide,
And true love waiting fill the dead.

Let roll and sway fill the evening air,
Let death below guide our feet,
For the halyard fast gather there,
Where ocean deep 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 face the storm and sing with me,
Let promise made fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.

The river prays every day,
Through old oak tree we roam,
Where faithful heart leads the way,
And till the day I die.

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

Through true devotion we find our way,
By ancient bridge we stand,
Though forest may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.

Let grow fill the evening air,
Let distant home guide our feet,
For mountain gather there,
Where lone prairie 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 flow 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 158 calls to every heart,
Through true devotion we go,
May we never weep apart,
And may our love still grow.
