Smile you inland hills and rivers	A
Flush you mountains in the dawn	B
But my roving heart is seaward	C
With the ships of gray St John	D
	-
Fair the land lies full of August	E
Meadow island shingly bar	F
Open barns and breezy twilight	G
Peace and the mild evening star	F
	-
Gently now this gentlest country	H
The old habitude takes on	D
But my wintry heart is outbound	I
With the great ships of St John	D
	-
Once in your wide arms you held me	H
Till the man child was a man	J
Canada great nurse and mother	K
Of the young sea roving clan	J
	-
Always your bright face above me	H
Through the dreams of boyhood shone	L
Now far alien countries call me	H
With the ships of gray St John	D
	-
Swing you tides up out of Fundy	I
Blow you white fogs in from sea	H
I was born to be your fellow	M
You were bred to pilot me	H
	-
At the touch of your strong fingers	A
Doubt the derelict is gone	B
Sane and glad I clear the headland	I
With the white ships of St John	D
	-
Loyalists my fathers builded	I
This gray port of the gray sea	H
When the duty to ideals	N
Could not let well being be	H
	-
When the breadth of scarlet bunting	O
Puts the wreath of maple on	D
I must cheer too slip my moorings	P
With the ships of gray St John	D
	-
Peerless hearted port of heroes	Q
Be a word to lift the world	I
Till the many see the signal	R
Of the few once more unfurled	I
	-
Past the lighthouse past the nunbuoy	H
Past the crimson rising sun	S
There are dreams go down the harbor	K
With the tall ships of St John	D
	-
In the morning I am with them	T
As they clear the island bar	F
Fade till speck by speck the midday	I
Has forgotten where they are	F
	-
But I sight a vaster sea line	U
Wider lee way longer run	S
Whose discoverers return not	I
With the ships of gray St John	D
