Steady As She Goes

[Verse 1]
I see the thunderheads gather
In the northern sky
And my heart is sinking
In the threatening tide
'Cause my portside's heavy
With the worries of life
And the worries of dying
On the starboard side

[Verse 2]
Well, I wonder, am I really
Stouthearted enough?
'Cause the ocean is a-rolling
And these waters are rough
See the storm clouds brewing
In the sky above
So let my vessel be sturdy
Let my anchor be tough

[Chorus]
'Cause the clouds are known to gather
And the wind is prone to blow
I'll keep her steady as a river
When the wild wind comes to blow
Well, I've already been delivered
So I'll keep her steady as she goes

[Verse 3]
Well, I shiver in the wake of the raging storm
And my rigging is a-tattered
And these sails are torn
I may cast this cargo overboard
But I ain't setting my headings
For no change in course

[Chorus]
Though the clouds are known to gather
And the wind is prone to blow
I'll keep her steady as a river
When the wild wind comes to blow
I've already been delivered
So I'll keep her steady as she goes

[Bridge]
So when you can't find the faith to slumber
When you're thrown by every swell
Know that you're not going under
With the Captain at the helm

[Chorus]
So keep her steady as a river
When the wild wind comes to blow
You've already been delivered
So just keep her steady as she goes
Just keep her steady as she goes
Steady as she goes
