'SHEPHERDS OF THE SEAS'

I want to be there with you
Standing by your side
Waist-high in the water
Become the rising tide

I want to be there with you
Behold the mighty sea
We raise our voices higher
Together you and me

And we will rise up for the ocean
The shepherds of the seas
Let no man take their bodies
And drown them in our tears

I, I will stay with you
While we drown in blood and pain
I will not desert you
We shall not die in vain...

And we will hold on to each other
Though they bleed our bodies dry
As the water rises higher
They shall not hear us cry

I, I will care for you
When no one else is near
In the depths of sorrow
I will take your fear

I, I will go with you
To the end of earth and sky
You will know I fight for you
Until the day I die

And we will rise up for the ocean
The shepherds of the seas
Let no man take their bodies
Or drown them in our tears
We will rise in tidal waters
And brave the darkest days
We fight and never falter
The guardians of the waves.
