S.O.S

Sailing on a wooden ship,
on the deep-blue sea.
A quiet sky, calm weather,
it's where I like to be.

She's called the S.S. Rosa,
she is a ship so grand.
It has been many long weeks since,
she's seen any land.

The silent day moves in on to,
a raging storm at night.
Men about batteling waves,
to win the losing fight.

"Man the sails!" The captain cries,
but no one hears his yell.
This thundrous night, this horrid fright,
becomes a sailor's hell.

Won't anyone Save Our Souls?
Will we last till morn?
Stuck in Mother Nature's rage,
the sail is ripped and torn.

Alas! Rosa is so tired,
she's 'bout to give away,
and I will never forget what 
occured that fateful day.

In the darkest ebony,
of Nature's eyes we saw,
a little fringe of light and with it,
came a sweet, soft call.

"Mighty sailors strong and proud,
never fear, we're here.
We will calm the storm for you,
the rocks are getting near."

Like magic so it seemed to be,
the waves so tall, subdued.
The cloudy sky cleared,
when the voice was through.

Rosa took us to land,
that now starry night.
We rested up and thanked,
that little voice and light.

We reached land with our lives,
we are lucky men.
Although we all have suffered much...
We WILL sail again!
