The Wrath Of Fate Lyrics

The rain was blowing, The lightning cracked, All the windows smashed. With sails scorched or barely there All our hopes were dashed. With tattered lines and planking charred The ship stayed on its course. Our fires lit, the clouds around, And we felt deep remorse.

But the crew stayed at its posts And the Captain at his wheel! We all endured the wrath of fate But thought our fate was sealed. A chain's as weak as its weakest link And rust did cut us through. But strength in arms and hearts and heads held cause our course was true

A traitor lay within our midst and stirred unrest within From vanity or selfishness or any other sin With fires set and lanyards cut The traitor did jump ship And left the blazing falling corpse Of vessel in our grip

But the crew stayed at its posts And the Captain at his wheel! We all endured the wrath of fate But thought our fate was sealed. A chain's as weak as its weakest link And rust did cut us through. But strength in arms and hearts and heads held cause our course was true

And down we plunged, a firey ball A skeletal frame of ash. With airbags burst three thousand feet All our hopes were dashed. Nothing could keep ship aloft So, so down we crashed. Five hundred fathoms down we fell toward briny deep we splashed!
But the crew stayed at its posts And the Captain at his wheel! We all endured the wrath of fate But thought our fate was sealed. A chain's as weak as its weakest link And rust did cut us through. But strength in arms and hearts and heads held cause our course was true.

The ocean hit like wall of stone The creak of timbers like banshees moan But through the resolve of the Captain's crew Waves broke bow and then withdrew.

The mast was charred but still so strong So sails we did raise. The windows gone above waterline The water quenched the blaze. With lighten blots quite far aloft And gentle wind below. The Captain's crew and battered ship Sailed into sunset's glow.

But the crew stayed at its posts And the Captain at his wheel! We all endured the wrath of fate But thought our fate was sealed. A chain's as weak as its weakest link And rust did cut us through. But strength in arms and hearts and heads held cause our course was true But strength in arms and hearts and heads held cause our course was true
