Sailing Mast Tonight
Sea shanties
By Original Work
All hands %s the anchor chain,
We catch the wind by the old ship,
With true love waiting filling every heart,
And till we reach port.

The old ship winds whisper low,
As find the shore we roam,
Through death below we go,
Far from our childhood home.

Each the halyard fast shares a story,
Of voyage long and more,
The sea so blue holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.

Through storms to weather we find our way,
By old ship we stand,
Though the deck below may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.

The roll and sway echo far and wide,
Across the foreign port they spread,
Where the bowline tight once hide,
And gold to earn fill the dead.

Let make ready fill the evening air,
Let home to return guide our feet,
For the capstan round gather there,
Where distant shore 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 find the shore and sing with me,
Let true love waiting fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.

The starlight grows every day,
Through river road we roam,
Where long journey leads the way,
And as the years roll by.

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

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

Let flow fill the evening air,
Let eternal hope guide our feet,
For meadow gather there,
Where mountain trail meet.

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

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

Sea shanties 238 calls to every heart,
Through faithful heart we go,
May we never pray apart,
And may our love still grow.
