On the Deck of a Spanish Sailing Ship

Lyrics

Lord, we take this journey
 To find a promised land
 Lord, we take this journey
 To find a promised land
 And we believe in your power
 We believe in your power
 We believe in your power
 But the end is so close,
 So close at hand
 Lord, these men are hungry
 There just hasn't been enough
 And the journey's been so rough
 And, Lord, these men are hurting
 They implore me to go back
 As the planks beneath them crack
 And I know it's my responsibility
 But I'm starving too
 And I hurt, I do
 And I'm lost
 I believe in my responsibility
 But I need to see
 If the fruits will be worth the cost
 So I'm begging you, Lord
 You gotta stop, take a look
 At your children who believe in this promised land
 Have mercy, Lord
 Stop their suffering and their woe
 Stop, shine your light on these children
 Who have faith in your guiding hand
 I'm just begging Lord
 Cause there's no place else to go
 I am unworthy, Lord
 Lord, this ship is crowded
 And the men are tired an worn
 But another baby's born
 And, Lord, this ship is broken
 And the sails are ripped and old
 But the winds are rough and cold
 And I know it's my responsibility
 When I ride the sea
 These men turn to me for a sign
 I believe in my responsibility
 But I can't be sure
 When it's time for your light to shine
 So I'm begging you, Lord
 To make it stop
 Take a look at your children
 Who believe in this promised land
 Have mercy, Lord
 Give a sign to let us know
 Stop, shine your light on these children
 Who have faith in your guiding hand
 I'm just begging, Lord
 Cause there's no place else to go
 Lord, save this child
 I am not strong enough
 I am not strong enough
 Lord, save my soul
 I am unworthy
 ♪
 Lord, take my hand
 I am not strong enough
 I am not strong enough
 Lord, take my heart
 I am unworthy
 ♪
 Lord, give me hope
 I am not strong enough
 I am not strong enough
 Lord, give me light
 I am unworthy
 I am unworthy
 ♪
 Stop, take a look
 At the children, at the children
 Who believe in this promised land
 You gotta have mercy, Lord
 Have mercy, Lord
 Give us strength so that we can grow
 Stop, shine your light
 On these children who have faith in the divine
 ♪
 I'm just begging, Lord
 I'm just begging you, Lord
 I know I am unworthy
 But there's no place else to go
 A new world calls across the ocean
 A new world calls across the ocean
 A new world calls across the sky
