OUR SEA HEROES, by                    
First Line: Carried away down in the atlantic
Last Line: For the woman and also, for the child.
Subject(s): Disasters; Ships & Shipping; Shipwrecks; Titanic (ship)


Carried away down in the Atlantic,
Calm and brave our men stood upon the Titanic;
Amid the horror they ne'er forgot honor,
They cried save children and women,
I'm the strongest of the race,
I'm the man.

God place our heroes, of the sea;
Nearer to Thee, nearer to Thee.

Never shall we forget their bravery,
Their sacrifice has immortalized their mem'ry;
We honor them all the humble and the high,
Like bravest soldiers they died,
For the woman and also, for the child.
