STORY:
A seasoned and well-traveled sailor himself, Paul now
sets sail as a captive aboard the prison ship – on a journey
across the Mediterranean from Jerusalem to Rome to testify
before Caesar himself. Encountering fierce Mediterranean
storms, they’re shipwrecked. The ship is destroyed.
But all aboard miraculously survive – including
Paul, "The Messenger."
“When it was decided that we would sail for Italy, Paul and some other prisoners were handed over to a centurion…all the sailors were afraid and each cried out to his own god…they threw the cargo into the sea to lighten the ship…on the fourteenth night…still being driven across the Adriatic…in an attempt to escape from the ship, the sailors let the lifeboat down…” – from Jonah 1:5 & Acts 27: 5, 27, 30 (NIV)

LYRICS:
Yo-Ho!
Oh, Yo-Ho! – away we go
Where we’re headin’ really don’t know
We’re set to sail – away we go – off to the wild blue sea
We sail the ocean free
Yo-Ho!
Oh, Yo-Ho!
And “thar she blow”
Orion’s risin’ here below
Mornin’ red sky what a show – here on the dark blue sea
Yo-Ho!
And away we go – where we’re sailin’
Really don’t know and we’re off on the wild blue sea - Yo-Ho!
We sail the ocean free
Yo-Yo-Ho! Yo-Ho! – off on the wild blue sea
Yo-Yo-Ho! Yo-Ho! – we sail the ocean free
Yo-Yo-Ho! – we sail the ocean free
Yo-Ho!
Oh-No!
Oh-No!
Thar she blow storms are risin’s - time to go
Skies are turnin’ black ya know – lost on the open sea
What will become of me
No!
Oh-No!
Down we go abandon ship – lower the boats
Seas are risin’ – Oh-No! – Lost on the storm-tossed sea
What will become of me
No!
Oh-No!
Down we go – abandon ship – lower the boats
Seas are risin’ – Oh-No! – Lost on the storm-tossed sea – No!
What will become of me – Oh-No!
Lost on the storm-tossed sea – No!
What will become of me
Oh, No!
