Block Island Song
Source: One Hundred Folk Songs from Many Countries, H. F. Gilbert, 1910 Words: Henry F. Gilbert

lyrics

Roll onward, ever roll, deep surging ocean
Wild is thy restless soul, ever in motion

Waves round me ever flow, swelling and leaping
Winds round me keenly blow, never are sleeping

Bravely on crests of foam, bear thou me upward
Loved ones wait me at home, waft thou me onward

Roll onward, ever roll, deep surging ocean
Wild is thy restless soul, ever in motion
