When the earth lost it's light   No more sun in the sky   I began to see fear   Even in the very bravest seamen's eyes   A fresh water's sailors fear   Of deliverance and storm   But with good ship and sea roam   We will make it home   The wind began to blow, in fury made waves to rise   A good ship but deep loaden   And with all that in mind we still rolled the dice   Waiting for judgement of heaven   Then the wind increased and so she wallowed in the sea   We had all hands at work to strike the top mast   But as the ropes got stuck we didn't have a chance   It's happening so fast   Waves raging higher   Please let us not die hear   From this violent storm   Save us all   Fear in our eyes as we gaze at the sky   For this one time   Save us all   The sea went mountain high, it broke upon us all   He wind whipped our sails   I heard the boatswain call and to his death he fell   At once washed away   Our captain prayed for mercy from the violent storm   We all could hear him cry   No time to waste now, cut the mast by the board   Or else we're doomed to die   Waves raging higher   Please let us not die hear   From this violent storm   Save us all   Fear in our eyes as we gaze at the sky   For this one time   Save us all   The ship was breaking but still the remaining crew   Called all hands to the pumps   As a last cry for help from desperate men at sea   We fired our guns   Waves raging higher   Please let us not die hear   From this violent storm   Save us all   Fear in our eyes as we gaze at the sky   For this one time   Save us all
