A Sailorman's Hymn Lyrics

Can you hear the sirens resound
from the coastline of Ireland tonight?
It's the song of a promising heart
of the souls that the ocean unite.

And she stands by the window
alone, staring into the rain.
She is trying to guide his way home
from the waters that keep them apart.

So she lights up a candle for hope to be found,
captive and blind by the darkness around.
Firm as a mountain she never will mourn,
timeless awaiting the break of dawn.

Can you hear the sailorman's hymn
as it comes with the rise of the tide?
It is sung where the rainbow begins
as a comfort for tears she has cried.

She remains by the window
alone, staring into the rain.
She is trying to guide his way home,
keeps on praying for God to protect him.

She lights up a candle for hope to be found,
captive and blind by the darkness around.
Each wave a promise, a new hope reborn.
Sunrise consoles at the break of dawn.
