In Memoriam "Comfort"
To our fallen shipmates
(by - Franklin Lee Stevenson)
There is a tower of strength
For you and me...
'Tis that which we call faith
And as the sea
Oft dashes on the rocks
To no avail
So storms may come to us,
But in the gale
We lean upon that faith
And soon once more
We see a beacon light...
It is the shore.
