A Journey Through A Stormy Night
A raft beneath a stormy sky
Crashing through the billowing waves
As the passengers look for ships nearby
Three men lie together with fear
Of things unknown that might appear
With shivers and trembles they try to steer
They cower under the mighty sky
The thunder begins to amplify
Then the men scream out a battle cry-
The refuse for this to be their demise
And try to turn their fate clockwise
As they wait for the sun to rise
Morning comes and they dock their boat at the pier
And hug all their people near and dear
Blessed and grateful they yell ALL CLEAR
In a blessed place they lie
Dreaming as time goes by
Whether they can still sing their battle cry
Through the billowing waves they scream
Their faces through the salty air begin to beam
