Author: Alfred Tennyson Hymnal: The Hymnal and Order of Service #591 (1926) Meter: Irregular Hymnal Title: The Hymnal and Order of Service Lyrics: 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 bourne 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.
Amen. Topics: Last Things: Death and Burial; Names and Office of Christ Pilot Languages: English Tune Title: CROSSING THE BAR
