Seth Lakeman - Each Man Lyrics

We stood upon the farthest shore
With the honesty of youth
Here we have our blood and toil
As we dare to speak the truth
In the core of good old albion
Where the masters made their rules
Here we fear a devils tune
To dance that you could fool us

We spoke the grace of unity
And six of us stood strong
A kinship and a company
In the face of fought she'd wrong
For where could there be suffering
In a fair and decent wage
When a force stands up by his word
In a passion of that age

Each man will stand his ground
Each man will rise
Each man will stand his ground
Each man will rise

All our fears came tumbling
When they sent us to be tried
Down upon the southern sea
To a dark and desperate life
Yet all the months and years I served
I drank for england's heart
For in this wicked servitude I wish to play my part

Each man will stand his ground
Each man will rise
Each man will stand his ground
Each man will rise

My body shall not have its sleep
When I crave to finally lie
With the bells caught off for faithful
In this church while I reply
It's cool, the journey summons us no more to be abreast
A voice to find his union
A place to find his rest

Each man will stand his ground
Each man will rise
Each man will stand his ground
Each man will rise
