The splendors of a southern sun	A
Caress the glowing sky	B
O'er crested waves the colors glance	C
And gleaming softly die	B
A gentle calm from heaven falls	D
And weaves a mystic spell	E
A glowing grace that charms the soul	F
Whose glory none can tell	E
	-
Oh warm sweet treasures of a sun	A
Of endless fire and love	G
Those dying embers are the flames	H
From heavenly fires above	G
Unto the water's edge they creep	I
And bathe the seas in red	J
Then die like shadows on the deep	I
With glory cold and dead	J
	-
A ship a lone dark wanderer	K
Upon the southern seas	L
Speeds like a white faced messenger	K
Before the dying breeze	L
Her masts are tipped with amethyst	M
A splendor all untold	N
A crimson mantle wraps her round	O
Her sails are made of gold	N
	-
The light wind dies she slowly drifts	P
Then stops an idle thing	Q
While sunset clouds around her prow	R
A dreamy grandeur fling	Q
And eyes upon her deck look forth	S
With looks of longing pain	T
A hundred sunsets they would give	U
Dear home to see again	V
	-
But see a shadow as of night	W
Spreads o'er the crimson sky	B
Like doomed and lifeless forms of earth	X
The clouds in heaven lie	B
A silence falls the ship stands still	Y
A fated thing of earth	X
Then like a child of sin and wrong	Z
The storm is given birth	X
	-
Oh struggle well ye gallant crew	A2
With storm and wind and wave	B2
For there are helpless women here	C2
And children too to save	B2
Quick sailors do your duty well	E
And man the life boats too	A2
For soon the rocks will strand the ship	D2
And pierce her through and through	A2
	-
See like a woman turned to stone	E2
A weeping mother stands	F2
Her heart seems like seems like some frozen thing	Q
She wrings her trembling hands	F2
Within her arms she holds a child	G2
With frightened wond'ring eyes	H2
Below the waters pitiless	I2
Above the angry skies	H2
	-
Beside her stands a fair young girl	J2
With eyes that flash and quiver	K
They are the only ones still left	K2
These three that moan and shiver	K
But soon a voice shouts back the words	L2
Through all the deaf'ning roar	M2
A strong hand grasps the trembling girl	J2
There's room for just one more	M2
	-
Stay stay she cries with whitened face	N2
Why should I fear to die	B
Oh take this woman by my side	O2
Nor stay to question why	B
She has a dear one 'mongst your crew	A2
She is a mother too	A2
I am alone I fear not death	P2
If this you'll only do	A2
	-
The sailor grasped the mother's hand	Q2
She turned and kissed the maid	R2
The tears of pity filled her eyes	H2
Yet not one word she said	J
The maiden stood with outstretched hands	F2
All hope indeed was gone	S2
And yet she stood with fearless heart	T2
Undaunted and alone	E2
	-
Oh God the heart that knows your love	G
Will never need to fear	U2
A priceless gem lies on my face	N2
The mother's grateful tear	V2
The lightnings swept across the ship	D2
The darkness wrapped her round	O
Above the thunder of the storm	W2
There came no other sound	O
	-
The morning broke the storm had fled	J
The wreck was washed away	X2
And calmly now as yesterday	X2
The sea in splendor lay	X2
The noble heart that throbbed with life	Y2
Lay fathoms deep below	Z2
And what lies buried in that heart	T2
The waves alone can know	Z2
