[00:00.00]Home From The Sea - Phil Coulter (菲尔·柯尔特)
[00:11.30]On a cold winters night
[00:13.77]With a storm at it's height
[00:16.68]The lifeboat answered the call
[00:22.03]They pitched and they tossed
[00:24.41]Till we thought they were lost
[00:27.20]As we watched from the harbor wall
[00:32.30]Though the night was pitch black
[00:35.02]There was no turning back
[00:37.79]For someone was waiting out there
[00:43.18]But each volunteer
[00:45.67]Had to live with his fear
[00:48.25]As they joined in a silent prayer
[00:56.88]Home home home from the sea
[01:01.85]Angels of mercy answer our plea
[01:09.37]And carry us home home home from the sea
[01:16.41]Carry us safely home from the sea
[01:32.08]As they battled their way
[01:34.55]Past the mouth of the bay
[01:37.32]It was blowing like never before
[01:42.52]As they gallantly fought
[01:45.08]Every one of them thought
[01:48.02]Of loved ones back on the shore
[01:53.04]Then a flicker of light
[01:55.71]And they knew they were right
[01:58.28]There she was on the crest of a wave
[02:03.56]She's an old fishing boat
[02:06.25]And she's barely afloat
[02:08.89]Please God there are souls we can save
[02:17.52]Home home home from the sea
[02:22.58]Angels of mercy answer our plea
[02:30.08]And carry us home home home from the sea
[02:37.16]Carry us safely home from the sea
[02:58.03]And back in the town
[03:00.57]In a street that runs down
[03:03.15]To the sea and the harbor wall
[03:08.43]They'd gathered in pairs
[03:11.34]At the foot of the stairs
[03:14.04]To wait or the radio call
[03:19.06]And just before dawn
[03:21.90]When all hope had gone
[03:24.41]Came a hush and a faraway sound
[03:29.64]Twas the coxswain he roared
[03:32.23]All survivors on board
[03:35.03]Thank God and we're homeward bound
[03:43.50]Home home home from the sea
[03:48.68]Angels of mercy answer our plea
[03:56.08]And carry us home home home from the sea
[04:03.29]Carry us safely home from the sea
[04:11.20]Home home home from the sea
[04:16.48]Angels of mercy answer our plea
[04:23.89]And carry us home home home from the sea
[04:30.96]Carry us safely home from the sea
