david shell - i am merely a sailor lyrics

our life is a sea we are merely crewmates on a ship
if we are to ignore our captain
we are sure to leave the course
the course is narrow and difficult
but sure to bring prosperity
so i charge you, brothers
trust in the captain and
follow the course
no matter the seas

this sorrow will not relent
as waves against the hull of a ship
the torrent of disheartenment
will not cease
to wherе shall i sail the ship
o captain

the seas rock mе from side to side
the ship creaks and trembles from the waves
the sickness is immense
i can’t take it anymore
the captain says this feeling passes
but it is quite unbearable
i must stay diligent to my captains commands
in any hope to escape this storm
the storms were all i knew anymore
my rest was hindered, my peace was too
the captain was at all times calm and reassuring
informing me no one had failed on his course
but many failed, not at the fault of the captain, but from
disobedience to his commands
he spoke of his home in times of strong storm
he spoke of the warmth it had, his home knew only
sun, it knew no night, no darkness, and he also spoke this
he said if i stayed the course to the end he would
take me to his home, that i may find my long_desired
rest

oh, that lovely sound
their beautiful hair flows over the surface of the water
their beauty was unmatched
they called me to join them in the water
i nearly jumped then
i heard the voice of my captain
he said beware the sirens, they are beautiful
yet they take you from my ship
they give you no gain, they tear you to pieces
keep on the course for it is all that matters
i must follow my captain’s commands and keep on
the course
i am so tired
the waves knock me to the deck
i get up
they knock me down again
i get up
once more i fall
i lay there
my captain stands over me with his beaming smile
hand outstretched to help me up once more
he assures me he will always help me up no matter
how many times i fall

the sirens infested these waters
their enticing singing turned to jeering
for even they knew my captain’s command
they taunted and mocked for they knew my desires
i wished to satisfy my pleasures and jump to them
yet i knew i must trust my captain
his experience dwarfed all others on the seas
therefore, i must trust him above all
and to the course, we must continue
