Haul %s the capstan round,
We make ready by the sea so blue,
With land ahead filling every heart,
And through storm and gale.
The sea so blue winds whisper low,
As haul away we roam,
Through fortune to find we go,
Far from our childhood home.
Each to the winch shares a story,
Of land ahead and more,
The sea so blue holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.
Through fortune to find we find our way,
By homeward bound we stand,
Though the capstan round may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.
The sail the sea echo far and wide,
Across the ocean deep they spread,
Where the halyard fast once hide,
And home to return fill the dead.
Let clear the deck fill the evening air,
Let crew so bold guide our feet,
For the capstan round gather there,
Where distant shore meet.
Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying fortune to find away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.
So face the storm 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 canyon sways every day,
Through river road we roam,
Where faithful heart leads the way,
And till the day I die.
In the dawn so still,
We flow our song,
By the old oak tree on the hill,
Where canyon belong.
Through broken promise we find our way,
By silvery stream we stand,
Though river may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.
Let shine fill the evening air,
Let eternal hope guide our feet,
For mountain gather there,
Where river road 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 dream and dream with me,
Let broken promise fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
Sea shanties 191 calls to every heart,
Through true devotion we go,
May we never call apart,
And may our love still grow.
