The Shades of evening softly fall
The shades of evening softly fall,
Farewell, a long farewell,
Parting must come to one and all,
Farewell, again farewell;
Love like a beacon shines afar,
And Faith is steadfast as a star,
Before us lies the harbor-bar,
Farewell, and then farewell.
Let old Grief hide her aching eyes,
Farewell, dear heart, farewell,
Morning again will light the skies,
Farewell, and then farewell;
Our barque is on the ocean years,
O ebb of joy, O flow of tears,
And gently pealing in our ears,
Farewell, a last farewell!
Farewell, a long farewell,
Parting must come to one and all,
Farewell, again farewell;
Love like a beacon shines afar,
And Faith is steadfast as a star,
Before us lies the harbor-bar,
Farewell, and then farewell.
Let old Grief hide her aching eyes,
Farewell, dear heart, farewell,
Morning again will light the skies,
Farewell, and then farewell;
Our barque is on the ocean years,
O ebb of joy, O flow of tears,
And gently pealing in our ears,
Farewell, a last farewell!
