Death Ship

Death ship stop: O! Let me breathe! In heath in mead in beauteous land I vow to come, I vow to row With thee I go, O !hand in hand In sleet in snow in desert sand O stop thou joy , O go Thou woe! All life I saw thy magic show! Mist on lips and eyes is falling May someone my secrets know on River of time was faster faster Wind in far off meadows blow on I'll show you way to heaven O thou sailor! Row, Thou row on! Kirk of Hamlet , Moon and pasture All of them with Thee, they flow on! Lamps of hope in winds is shimmering But Thou go ! O sailor , go on!
