The Widow's Walk/Land Across The Sea Poem by Paul Henry Dallaire

Lord I'm blind in this world of darkness
need your soft and gentle hand to lead me on
On my knees I beg for tender kindness
be my compass on the sea and take me home

Chorus:
Lead my boat take me home to that land across the sea
let me anchor my ship to the port where you will be
Lead my boat take me home to that land across the sea
on the sands of time on the shores of Galilee

Verse:
I can't see the stars to guide me master
for I'm lost in the fog and all alone
The rain is heavy on my shoulders
and my ship is sinking low and I will drown

Talk:
The storm has passed and somehow I see a light shining bright in a little bay window
and inside the house a woman glares towards the sea
Tho I am here on a full moonlight I leave no shadows
my woman walks the Widow's walk and weeps for me

Chorus and end.
