The Voyage of St. Brendan [Lyric Video]

“The Voyage of St. Brendan“ is the official school song for Saint Brendan’s Classical Christian Academy (), which I am helping start through our church in Ogden, Utah. Since our namesake, St. Brendan the Navigator, is known for his legendary sea voyage for Eden, we decided that a sea shanty would be an appropriate school song. We chose to write new words to the old tune, “Roll the Old Chariot,“ one of my absolutely favorite sea songs out there. Hope you enjoy this rendition! If you enjoy my work and want to see more of it, you can lend your aid at Let me know if you want to hear more shanties! ——— LYRICS: Well we’ll be alright, if the LORD be on our side! We’ll be alright, if the LORD be on our side! We’ll be alright, if the LORD be on our side! And the LORD, he’s on our side! And we all belong to Jerusalem above We all belong to Jerusalem above We all belong to Jerusalem above And we sail for Eden’s shores And we’ll be alright, if the LORD, he be our strength! We’ll be alright, if the LORD, he be our strength! We’ll be alright, if the LORD, he be our strength! We’ll be alright, if the LORD, he be our strength! And the LORD, he is our strength! And we all belong to Jerusalem above We all belong to Jerusalem above We all belong to Jerusalem above And we sail for Eden’s shores We’ll be sharpening the axe to cut down old Donar’s oak! We’ll be sharpening the axe to cut down old Donar’s oak! We’ll be sharpening the axe to cut down old Donar’s oak! For the LORD, he’s stronger, far! And we all belong to Jerusalem above We all belong to Jerusalem above We all belong to Jerusalem above And we sail for Eden’s shores ——— Follow me on Twitter: Find me on Facebook: Support on Patreon:
