May God Be With You

Instrumental Intro

Verse 1

A quiet bridge at end of day

The stars lean closer as you go

We gathered round to hear you say

Goodbye to all you've come to know

Pre-Chorus

You charted courses none could sail

You held the line when hope grew pale

Chorus

So long dear captain of the sky

May peace walk softly by your side

We lift our voices one last time

May god be with you on the ride

Post-Chorus

(Farewell) fare thee well

(Farewell) fare thee well

Verse 2

A final log a steady hand

You taught us courage wears a smile

You stood for what was just and grand

And made the distance worth the while

Pre-Chorus

The deck grows still the stars grow kind

You leave a brighter wake behind

Chorus

So long dear captain of the sky

May peace walk softly by your side

We lift our voices one last time

May god be with you on the ride

Post-Chorus

(Farewell) fare thee well

(Farewell) fare thee well

Bridge

Rest now your watch is through

Rest now the stars salute you

Rest now we'll carry on

Rest now until the dawn

Chorus

So long dear captain of the sky

May peace walk softly by your side

We lift our voices one last time

May god be with you on the ride

Post-Chorus

(Farewell) fare thee well

(Farewell) fare thee well
