"Safe at Anchor"


Here  I  stand  Alone  again
Reaching  out  Across  the Room 
Quietly  the  Sun's  gone Down
The  Sailors  Seek  the  Harbour


Look  at  USailing  in
Decks  Awash  but  still  Afloat
And  now  the Winds  come Up
TRock  us  on the Water 


In  the  Calm  before  the Storm
Sunny  Days  and  Smoother Waters
When  we  Hit  the  Seventh  Wave
WFound  a  Line  and Caught  Her


Look  into  my  Eyes 
Let  me See  Where you"ve  been Sailing
Like  you,  I  have  Felt  the Storm
And  Heard  the wild  Waves Wailing


Steer  Clear of  the  Shore
The Coast  is  Rough  and Rocky
It's  the  Deepest  Channel  that  Runs  Most  True
The  Brightest  Stars  that  Mark  Her


Steady  as  she  Goes
There's  NTurning  Back  the  Sailor
With  the Ship  on Course  and  the  Sea  winds  Fair
There's  NNeed  to Fail  her


Riding  out  the  Storm
Like  a  Ship  Safe  At  Anchor
Waiting  out  the  Long  Voyage
Round  the Cape  of  Hope  will  take  her.
