Blue Boat Home Flotilla Edition

(Verse 1) C F G Though the waves are rising high, C Am G C Beneath a unforgiving sky, C F G Our hull is filled with simple bread, C Am G C And hopes for mouths left underfed. Em Am7 Dm7 G7 Stars above, our only chart, Em Fm7 Dm7 G7 We sail with a determined heart, C F C G Through the silence and the dread, C F C G c Towards the shores where hope has fled. (Chorus) Sail, sail our weary boat, On a sea where fear does float. Carry life past the blockade's line, Oh, suffering people, yours and mine. Through the gunships and the glare, On a sea of deep despair, Guide her through the deadly night, A fragile, persevering light. (Verse 2) See the children on the sand, In a bombed and broken land. Their empty hands reach for the shore, Where aid is stopped by war and law. A mighty wall of steel and fear, Holds back the help, we hold so dear. But still we turn our battered prow, We make and keep this promise now. (Chorus) Sail, sail our weary boat, On a sea where fear does float. Carry life past the blockade's line, Oh, suffering people, yours and mine. Through the gunships and the glare, On a sea of deep despair, Guide her through the deadly night, A fragile, persevering light. (Bridge) And the world just watches on, As another day is gone. But this vessel, small and slow, Says a truth it cannot hide: No child should have to starve inside, A world that has so much to give, A world where we are meant to live. (Chorus) Sail, sail our weary boat, On a sea where fear does float. Carry life past the blockade's line, Oh, suffering people, yours and mine. Through the gunships and the glare, On a sea of deep despair, Guide her through the deadly night, A fragile, persevering light. (Outro) Oh, Gaza, waiting there, In the thin and wounded air... We are coming, hold on fast... This indignity will not last. Though we are just a wooden wall, We will not let your children fall. We are coming, hold on fast... This indignity will not last.
