Home From The Sea - Celtic Thunder

On a cold winters night

With a storm at its height

The lifeboat answered the call

They pitched and they tossed

Till we thought they were lost

As we watched from the harbor wall

Though the night was pitch black

There was no turning back

For someone was waiting out there

But each volunteer

Had to live with his fear

As they joined in a silent prayer

Home, home, home from the sea

Angels of mercy, answer our plea

And carry us home, home, home from the[ sea

Carry us safely home from the sea

As they battled their way

Past the mouth of the bay

It was blowing like never before

As they gallantly fought

Every one of them thought

Of loved ones back on the shore

Then a flicker of light

And they knew they were right

There she was on the crest of a wave

She's an old fishing boat

And she's barely afloat

Please God, there are souls we can save

Home, home, home from the sea

Angels of mercy, answer our plea

And carry us home, home, home from the[ sea

Carry us safely home from the sea

And back in the town

In a street that runs down

To the sea and the harbor wall

They'd gathered in pairs

At the foot of the stairs

To wait or the radio call

And just before dawn

When all hope had gone

Came a hush and a faraway sound

'Twas the coxswain he roared

All survivors on board

Thank God and we're homeward bound

Home, home, home from the sea

Angels of mercy, answer our plea

And carry us home, home, home from the[ sea

Carry us safely home from the sea
