And one clear call for me!
And may there be no moaning bar
When I put out to sea,
And may there be no moaning bar
When I put out to sea.
2 Twilight and ev'ning bell,
And after that the dark!
And may there be no sad farewell
When I at last embark,
And may there be no sad farewell
When I at last embark.
3 For tho' from time and place
The flood may bear me far,
I hope to see my Pilot's face
When I have crossed the bar,
I hope to see my Pilot's face
When I have crossed the bar. Topics: Book Four: Occasional Selections, Gospel Songs and Hymns; Services, Occasions Funeral Scripture: Revelation 22:4 Languages: English Tune Title: WORDEN
