FAR FROM THE FIELDS OF HOME

 

FAR FROM THE FIELDS OF HOME

That ship had sailed so long ago

The ship of truth and beauty, honour

All the shipping lanes were closed

When it emerged through time, through mist

The ghost ship of all loveliness

Of valor in the worst of strife

Of honor when men

Laid down their life

To hear the clarion call of truth

Of the fealty Ruth bore to Naomi

Far from the fields of home.
