lyrics

Oh me, oh life,
of the questions oft' recurring.
Oh me, oh life,
oh fool that I am.
Oh me, oh life,
of the struggles borne around me.
What good amid these?
Oh me, oh life.

Foolish time looks on in jest,
mocking aims afloat at sea.
The Watcher's dreams, loaned and lost-
Wind and waves will mother me.

Oh me, oh life,
of the questions oft' recurring.
Oh me, oh life,
oh fool that I am.
Oh me, oh life,
of the struggles borne around me.
What good amid these?
Oh me, oh life.

Forgive my doubting heart;
forgive my wandering eyes;
accept these filthy hands,
the dark corners of my mind.

Wind and waves will mother me
Wind and waves will mother me
Wind and waves will mother me

Oh me, oh life,
of the questions oft' recurring.
Oh me, oh life,
oh fool that I am.
Oh me, oh life,
of the struggles borne around me.
What good amid these?
Oh me, oh life.
