The Wrath of Fate Lyrics

The Wrath Of Fate
lyrics by "Captain" Robert Brown

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
