Carry On

Steer the boat and carry on
When sea of hardships have you torn
And hands are numb in paddling long
Seeking refuge from the storm

Row your boat just a bit more
Yonder island you seek for
Stands a banner for victor
Prize awaiting you in shore

And the time you’ll reach the land
Only then you’ll understand
It’s not the isle, but the ocean
The most important you have won
