On the southern shores of the Avalon, where the sea and sky collide,
Lived a captain named William Jackman, with courage deep inside.
Born in Renews by the ocean's roar, on a May day long ago,
He'd become a name remembered, a tale to tell and show.
The Ballad of Will Jackman, hero of the sea,
Braving icy waters, to set the people free.
With strength and heart unyielding, through the storm's fierce might,
He saved twenty-seven souls, on that cold October night.
On Spotted Island's rocky shore, in eighteen sixty-seven,
The Sea Clipper met her fate, 'neath the storm-tossed heavens.
Jackman heard the call for help, the cries that pierced the air,
Without a thought for his own life, he swam through waves so fair.
The Ballad of Will Jackman, hero of the sea,
Braving icy waters, to set the people free.
With strength and heart unyielding, through the storm's fierce might,
He saved twenty-seven souls, on that cold October night.
Through twenty-seven journeys, through the tempest's icy grip,
He bore each soul to safety, from the wreckage of that ship.
His muscles strained, his spirit soared, with every life he claimed,
The hero of the Labrador Sea, forever he was named.
Though years have passed, and seas have calmed, his legend remains,
A tale of fearless valor, where the ocean speaks his name.
Medaled for his bravery, and the stories that we tell,
The kindness of William Jackman, in memory will dwell.
The Ballad of Will Jackman, hero of the sea,
Braving icy waters, to set the people free.
With strength and heart unyielding, through the storm's fierce might,
He saved twenty-seven souls, on that cold October night.
So raise a glass to Jackman, and the courage that he showed,
In the icy Labrador waters, where his legacy still glows.
For heroes live forever, in the hearts of those they save,
William Jackman, our true hero, bold and brave.
