Crossing The Bar

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 sadenss of farewell;
When I embark; For though from out our bourne
Of Time and Place The flood may bear me far, 1 hope to se my pilot face to face When I have crossed the bar.
ALFRED TENNYSON
