Author: Alfred Lord Tennyson, 1809-1892 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #583a (1917) Lyrics: 1 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.
2 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 crost the bar. Topics: The Christian Life Time, Death, Eternity; Crossing the Bar; Death Crossing the Bar; Jesus (See also Christ) Pilot ; Pilot, Christ our Languages: English Tune Title: CROSSING THE BAR
