Captain of the Ship

I am the captain of my ship
Sailing uncharted oceans
I am the captain of my mates
To whom I owe devotion

Sailing we on mounting waves
Awash, unconscious, unafraid
Sail we over counting days
A voyage of dreams that we have made

Helmsman turnabout I say
Were charting a new course
Fortune fills our sails today
Destiny’s our force

Believe in you, believe in me
A rhythm that is true
Focus on your star that shines
And get there with your crew

I am the captain of my ship
Sailing uncharted oceans
I am the captain with my mates
To whom I have devotion
