Come Row With Me

We have seen such wind and storm
As man or beast has ever known
And I ask of you this love
Send me not to shore alone

And leave me not at sea to drown
But row with me forever more,
Until our souls find paradise
And we serenity ashore

Hold me true throughout the day
In sunlight dance in summer’s heat
Feel the wind-song in your hair
And earthen warmth below your feet

Then come to me when light is gone
Mourn with me the passing day
Take shelter in my open arms
And pass with me the night away

Come row with me on waters calm
To land ahead and watch the tide
Where we can weather any storm
While gently rowing side by side
