Woe-Betide The Boatman
****************************
Woe betide the boatman
Who sails the stormy sea,
For he knows not what lies beneath
Nor what his fate may be

The waves may rise and crash
And the winds may howl and roar
But the boatman must sail on
To reach his distant shore

The tempests may rage and toss
And the lightning may strike his mast
But the boatman must hold on
To reach his port at last

The sea may be his enemy
And the sky his only friend,
But the boatman must sail on
Until his journey's end

The stars may guide his way
And the moon may light his path
But the boatman must steer true
To avoid the ocean's wrath

The sirens may call his name
And the mermaids sing their song
But the boatman must sail on
To where he does belong

The journey may be long
And the waters deep and wide
But the boatman must have faith
In himself and in the tide

For though he may be lost
And though he may be alone
The boatman must sail on
Until he finds his home

So woe betide the boatman
Who sails the stormy sea
For he knows not what lies beneath
Nor what his fate may be

But if he holds on tight
And if he steers with all his might
The boatman will reach his shore
And see the morning light.
