\nThe Pilot<\/font><\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

\n <\/p>\n

\nIn the dark without end<\/span><\/p>\n

\nWho art Thou, O Friend?<\/span><\/p>\n

\nI am led as if by a hand:<\/span><\/p>\n

\nBut cannot see,<\/span><\/p>\n

\nNor reach to Thee,<\/span><\/p>\n

\nNothing can understand.<\/span><\/p>\n

\nTo my eyes is given no light,<\/span><\/p>\n

\nAll seems everlasting night<\/span><\/p>\n

\nThou only my comrade there,<\/span><\/p>\n

\nHelping my plight:<\/span><\/p>\n

\nTo rout the gloom<\/span><\/p>\n

\nThy star-lamp relume \u2014<\/span><\/p>\n

\nThy splendid vision reveal.<\/span><\/p>\n

\nPierced by the thorns of pain,<\/span><\/p>\n

\nI ask again and again:<\/span><\/p>\n

\n“To what far alien realm<\/span><\/p>\n

\nThis hard path?” but in vain!<\/span><\/p>\n

\nOnce let me hear,<\/span><\/p>\n

\nLove’s lips grown near,<\/span><\/p>\n

\nWhisper to my appeal.<\/span><\/p>\n

\nIf Thou art here by my side,<\/span><\/p>\n

\nIn this heart-lost darkness wide<\/span><\/p>\n

\nStretch out Thy hand<\/span><\/p>\n

\nMy weary soul to guide.<\/span><\/p>\n

\nThough infirm my clasp,<\/span><\/p>\n

\nLoosen not Thy grasp:<\/span><\/p>\n

\nHold me fast through woe and weal.<\/span><\/p>\n
