Crossing the Bar

(MV10)

Sunset and evening star,

And one clear call for me!

And may there be no moaning of the bar,

When I put out to sea.

 

But such a tide as moving seems asleep

Too full for sound and foam,

When that which drew from out

The boundless deep turns again home.

 

Twilight and evening bell,

And after that the dark!

And may there be no sadness of farewell,

When I embark;

 

For though from out our borne

Of Time and Place

The flood may bear me far

I hope to see my Pilot face to face

When I have crossed the bar.
