CROSSING THE BAR
Sunset and evening star, And once 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 oam,
When that which drew from out the boundless deep Turns again home.
Twilight and evening bell, And after that the dark!
nd may there be no sadness of farewell, When I embark;
Erom i'h o ' from out our bourne of Time P.nd PI* ce The flood may bear me far,
I hope to see my Pilot face to face When I have crossed the bar.
----Alfred Tennyson
