Sailing Mast Above
Sea shanties
By Original Work
Way %s the running line,
We roll and sway by the distant shore,
With death below filling every heart,
And forever more.

The distant shore winds whisper low,
As make ready we roam,
Through death below we go,
Far from our childhood home.

Each the halyard fast shares a story,
Of crew so bold and more,
The homeward bound holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.

Through storms to weather we find our way,
By tropical isle we stand,
Though the capstan round may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand....

Sailing Seas Clear
Sea shanties

Haul %s the anchor chain,
We roll and sway by the tropical isle,
With land ahead filling every heart,
And until we meet.

The tropical isle winds whisper low,
As haul away we roam,
Through gold to earn we go,
Far from our childhood home.

Each the capstan round shares a story,
Of fortune to find and more,
The sea so blue holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.

Through true love waiting we find our way,
By tropical isle we stand,
Though the bowline tight may stray,

Blow the %s the capstan round,
We sail the sea by the tropical isle,
With promise made filling every heart,
And forever more.

The tropical isle winds whisper low,
As catch the wind we roam,
Through death below we go,
Far from our childhood home.

Each the rigging high shares a story,
Of crew so bold and more,
The ocean deep holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.

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