Light in the darkness, sailor; Day is at Hand! See o'er the foaming billows Fair heaven's land. Drear was the voyage sailor, Now almost o'er Save within the lifeboat, sailor Pull for the shore. Pull for the shore, sailor, Pull for the shore. Heed not the rolling waves, But bend to the oar; Safe in the lifeboat, sailor, Cling to self no more! Leave the poor old stranded wreck And pull for the shore. Trust in the life-boat, sailor, All else will fail Stronger the surges dash And fiercer the gale. Heed not the stormy winds, Though loudly they roar; Watch the "bright and morning star," And pull for the shore. (chorus) Bright gleams the morning, sailor, Uplift the eye. Clouds and darkness disappearing Glory is nigh. Safe in the lifeboat, sailor, Sing ever more "Glory, glory, hallelujah," Pull for the shore. (chorus)
