CRGSSING TI-IE BAR
Sunsel' and Evensng Slar Twllughlr and evening bell
And one clear call for me' And afler Ihaf Ihe dark'
And may Ihere be no moannng of The bar And may 'rhere be no sadness of farewell,
When I pu'r oul To sea When I embark
Bul such a hde as movlng seems asleep, For Though from oul our bourne of Time and Place,
Too Tull for sound and foam, The flood may bear me Tar,
When Tha? whnch drew from our The boundless deep, I hope 'ro see my Pslol face Io face,
Turns agaan home When I have crossed Ihe bar
