Fisherman’s Friends
The Leaving Shanty
It is time to go now
Haul away your anchor
Haul away your anchor
'Tis our sailing time

Get some sail upon her
Haul away your halyards
Haul away your halyards
'Tis our sailing time

Get her on her course now
Haul away your foresheets
Haul away your foresheets
'Tis our sailing time

Feel the seas run under
All away down Channel
All away down Channel
On the evening tide

Now my days are over
Haul away for heaven
Haul away for heaven
Lord be by my side

It is time to go now
Haul away your anchor
Haul away your anchor
'Tis our sailing time
