The roll Of the black clouds over.
And the breakers on every hand:
The night comes down on the ocean
And we climb the winding stair
To see that our lights are piercing

Far up at the mouth Of the river
Beyond the narrow beach
The last Of the home lights twinkle
And sink away from our reach.
Alone on rock In the desert
OF tumbling and tossing tide; II
The nations outer signal
To wanderers far ard wide.
Alone. and we wonder dimly
II the foghorn reaches the shore
Or pierces the outer stretches
That tumble and toss evermore.

Some fsnsrwifs wakes in the night
And peers from her smoky window
To see II were shining bright;

A helmsman watches our light

Alone on rock In the desert
And hungry for those on shore,
