Call all hands to man the capstan, see the cable run down clear, Heave away and with a will boys, for old England we will steer. And we’ll sing in joyful chorus, through the watches of the night, And we’ll sight the shores of England when the grey dawn brings the light. Chorus: Rolling home, rolling home, rolling home across the sea, Rolling home to dear old England, rolling home dear land to Thee. Up aloft admidst the rigging, blows the loud, exalting gale, Like bird’s wide, outstretched pinions spreads on high each swelling sail. And the wild waves cleft behind us seem to murmur as they flow, There are loving arms that wait you in the land to which you go. Many thousand miles behind us, many thousand miles afore, Ancient ocean, heave to waft us to our well-remembered shore. Cheer up Jack, bright smiles await you from the fairest of the fair, And her loving eyes will greet you with kind welcomes everywhere.

Call all hands to man the capstan,
see the cable run down clear,
Heave away and with a will boys,
for old England we will steer.
And we’ll sing in joyful chorus,
through the watches of the night,
And we’ll sight the shores of England
when the grey dawn brings the light.
Chorus:
Rolling home, rolling home, rolling home across the sea,
Rolling home to dear old England,
rolling home dear land to Thee.
Up aloft admidst the rigging,
blows the loud, exalting gale,
Like bird’s wide, outstretched pinions
spreads on high each swelling sail.
And the wild waves cleft behind us
seem to murmur as they flow,
There are loving arms that wait you
in the land to which you go.
Many thousand miles behind us,
many thousand miles afore,
Ancient ocean, heave to waft us
to our well-remembered shore.
Cheer up Jack, bright smiles await you
from the fairest of the fair,
And her loving eyes will greet you
with kind welcomes everywhere.
