You Can Stand

If you cannot on the ocean
Save them on the swiftest wave
Rocking on the highest billows
Laughing at the storms you made

You can stand them all
The sailors
Anchor yet within the bay
You can lend a hand to help them
As they launch their boat
Part way

If you are going to journey up a mountain
Steep and high
You can stand within the valley
We're going to go by

You can chant in happiness
As they slowly pass along

Though they may forget
Those sailors
