There are several great lines in that song, my favorite being:

“Does anyone know where the love of God goes when the waves turn the minutes to hours”

Having sailed the seven seas while in the US Navy, whenever I hear that line it always sends chills up my spine and it makes me think of the sailors that went into the water when the USS Indianapolis was sunk in WWII.
