Hard doth beat the mighty winds--
Hold on, fair mate, hold on!
Violent rageth angry waves--
Hold on, fair mate, hold on!
The sails are weak and lowering--
Rise up, fair mate, rise up!
Into the depths we dare not plunge--
Rise up, fair mate, rise up!
By tempest tossed are vessels small--
Be strong, fair mate, be strong!
Though rudder churns within the deep--
Be strong, fair mate, be strong!
High billows crash upon our decks--
Bow on, fair mate, bow on!
With grace and courage, face the storm--
Bow on, fair mate, bow on!
Unto horizons clear and bright--
Sail on, fair mate, sail on!
The journey leads beyond the night--
Sail on, fair mate, sail on!
