The Seamen's Hymn

The Seamen's Hymn
(A.L.Lloyd)

Come all you brave seamen
Wherever you're bound
And always let Nelson's
Proud memory go round.

And pray that the wars
And the tumult shall cease
For the greatest of gifts
Is a sweet lasting peace.

May the Lord put an end
To these cruel old wars
And bring peace and contentment
To all our brave tars!
