Call all hands to raise the anchor
In the wet the sky is clear
and tonight we’ll sail together
For old England home we’ll steer

Rolling home, rolling home
Rolling home across the sea
Rolling home to dear old England
Rolling home, fair land, to thee

And the waves we leave behind us
Seem to murmur as they go
there’s a hearty welcome waiting
In that land to which we go

Rolling home, rolling home
Rolling home across the sea
Rolling home to dear old England
Rolling home, fair land, to thee

Then we’ll sing in joyful chorus
Through the watches of the night
till we sight our dear old England
When the dawn brings in the light

Rolling home, rolling home
Rolling home across the sea
Rolling home to dear old England
Rolling home, fair land, to thee
