Our Life-Boat

OUR boat lies up yonder; She 's the pride of the place; To man her 's our duty, All perils to face.

Across the dark ocean We fearlessly ride; To save life in danger We scorn the fierce tide.

Hark! a boom! a bright flash! D'ye hear the dread sound; 'Tis a rocket shot up! Yon ship 's run aground.

See 1 she signals for help! All hands fit and ready; Away to the rescue! Steady, boys, steady.

The Life-boat I The Life-boat! On waves mountains high.

Aye, Aye, lads, take courage, Your comrades " Stand by." Across the dark ocean, We fearlessly ride; To face life in danger We scorn the fierce tide.
