For Those Who Never Returned

 

They left these shores and crossed the bar

Their hopes and dreams held high

Never thinking as they sailed from sight

This would be their last goodbye

 

Mothers, wives and children left on shore

Praying for the return of their men

Dreading each winters gales and storms

Would they ever see them again?

 

Some never made it back to land

Leaving sad broken hearts behind

Now all that is left are the memories

Of brave men who were one of a kind

 

Today we are gathered together

To remember these men with great love

May their spirits join closer in Heaven

And sail on God’s oceans of above.
