The Great Commander called them home

to sail the crystal sea,

Where they will steer with steady hand throughout eternity.

No longer will the high sea roll.

The skies will be clear and every day will be a day of happiness and cheer.

No storm shall cross their valiant prow and calm shall be the sea.

In that bright place where all is well and kindly is the breeze.

 They are at peace with our Shipmates who have gone before.
