The Cyclone Of Ryecove |
Oh listen today in a story I tell |
In Sadness and tear dimmed eyes |
Of a dreadful cyclone that came this way |
And blew our schoolhouse away |
Rye Cove (Rye Cove) Rye Cove (Rye Cove) |
The place of my childhood and home |
Where in life’s early morn I once loved to roam |
But now it’s so silent and lone |
When the cyclone appeared it darkened the air |
Yet the lightning flashed over the sky |
And the children all cried «don't take us away |
And spare us to go back home» |
There were mothers so dear and fathers the same |
That came to this horrible scene |
Searching and crying each found their own child |
Dying on a pillow of stone |
Oh give us a home far beyond the blue skies |
Where storms and cyclones are unknown |
And there by life’s strand we’ll clasp this glad hand |
Their children in a heavenly home |
