Florence Nightingale

Florence Nightingale gave her life to sail
Far away across the sea
So the soldiers there would get all her care
Where their mothers could not be
As a girl she was taught at home
By her father who disagreed
That Florence Nightingale gave her life to sail
Far away across the sea

Lady with the lamp
Bringing light to comfort me
Lady with the lamp
Bringing light so I may see
Lady with the lamp
Bringing light to comfort me
Lady with the lamp
Bringing light so I may see
(Bringing light and comfort to me)

Florence Nightingale gave her life to sail
Far away across the sea
So the soldiers there would get all her care
Where their mothers could not be
As a girl she was taught at home
By her father who disagreed
That Florence Nightingale gave her life to sail
Far away across the sea

Far away across the sea
Far away across the sea
