O Long The Way
O long the way and short the day, No light in tower or town, The waters roar and far the shore-- My ship, my ship goes down! 'Tis all in vain to strive again, My cry the billows drown, The fight is done, the wind has won-- My ship, my ship goes down! Bright sun, adieu! Thou'lt shine anew When skies no longer frown, But I--the deafening billows crash-- My ship, my ship goes down!
