Lyrics
The future is unknown
We try to sense the tide
The courage to chart another day
Spirits riding high, the sea so vast and wide
Always looking for a better way
One world, one ship and one big ocean
One voyage, to set out on a dream
A vision of peace through all of the commotion
One rope, one sail, and one team.
Now we're on our way,
A voyage through time
We lift our hearts to the wind
Destiny awaits, together we shall find
A new world, a place we can begin
One world, one ship and one big ocean
One voyage, to set out on a dream
A vision of peace through all of the commotion
One rope, one sail, and one team.
Work to raise the sails
With many-color hands
To catch the winds of peace
That blow from ev'ry land, for we believe
One world, one ship and one big ocean
One voyage, to set out on a dream
A vision of peace through all of the commotion
One rope, one sail, one hope, one world and one dream.
