Joseph Strauss........MEMORIAL
MEMORIAL TO OUR SHIPMATES
(PAGE HAS MUSIC)
Fading light dims the sight,
And a star gems the sky, gleaming bright.
Falls the night.
Day is done, gone the sun,
From the sea, from the hills, from the sky;
All is well, safely rest shipmate, God keeps you now.
Then good night, peaceful night,
Till the light of the dawn shineth bright;
God is near, do not fear;
Your Joe Strauss shipmates will always feel you here.
