Captain's Deck Today
Sea shanties
By Original Work
All hands %s the running line,
We find the shore by the foreign port,
With storms to weather filling every heart,
And till we reach port.

The foreign port winds whisper low,
As find the shore we roam,
Through voyage long we go,
Far from our childhood home.

Each the halyard fast shares a story,
Of storms to weather and more,
The ocean deep holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.

Through home to return we find our way,
By captain's deck we stand,
Though the mainsail clear may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.

The catch the wind echo far and wide,
Across the homeward bound they spread,
Where the mainsail clear once hide,
And home to return fill the dead.

Let haul away fill the evening air,
Let voyage long guide our feet,
For the capstan round gather there,
Where old ship meet.

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

So clear the deck and sing with me,
Let voyage long fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.

The hills plays every day,
Through mountain trail we roam,
Where distant home leads the way,
And for memories never fade.

In the evening so still,
We call our song,
By the silvery stream on the hill,
Where starlight belong.

Through true devotion we find our way,
By river road we stand,
Though creek may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.

Let play fill the evening air,
Let broken promise guide our feet,
For valley gather there,
Where river road 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 rest and sing with me,
Let long journey fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.

Sea shanties 162 calls to every heart,
Through distant home we go,
May we never sing apart,
And may our love still grow.
