THE VOYAGE.

Reading edition

Embarked upon an unknown sea,

And borne by tide which ne’er returns,—

Awed by the deepening mystery,

The stoutest heart for comfort yearns.

Fear not;—we are not left alone;

To wiser hands the helm is given;—

A guidance better than our own

Directs our way from earth to heaven.
