text: A song I heard the ocean sing
  A shining light in darkness deep
  I prayed a prayer into the tide
  And both they soothed me in my sleep
  For every season that has passed
  I prayed a prayer into the tide
  A shining light in darkness deep
  In my ten years before the mast
  For every season that has passed
  I laid my body o’er the side
  A shining light in darkness deep
  I prayed a prayer into the tide
  How can I answer questions I’ve known?
  A song I heard the ocean sing
  A shining light in darkness deep
  Ten years before the mast
  I heard the ocean sing
