Far Below the Stormy Sky

Far below the stormy sky,
And in the dimming light,
The ocean waves roll high.

Seagulls sound a warning cry,
And fly away in fright,
Far below the stormy sky.

Thunder roars its battle cry,
Ready for the fight,
The ocean waves roll high.

Closing in, the storm's eye,
Wind blowing hard with all its might,
Far below the stormy sky.

The sea churns up in reply,
Reaching to a great height,
The ocean waves roll high.

A trawler sees the danger nigh,
And to safety sails far out of sight,
Far below the stormy sky,
The ocean waves roll high.
