I’ve been looking for a song for years. I sang it on the stage at church for an Anniversary and l never forgot but no one seems to know it. When darkness creeps over the sea And hides the far land from the sight. What do the many ships do That seek their lone way through the night. Who ll guide them past the sharp rocks Who ll warn them danger is near Light up their darkness with hope Banish the voyagers fear And mark out the way. It was about the lighthouse men and had a beautiful tune which was backed by the choir. I’ve tried before but no luck. Is there anyone who remembers it. At that time I was in wolstanton in Newcastle under Lyme. Anybody???!!

When darkness creeps over the sea
And hides the far land from the sight.
What do the many ships do
That seek their lone way through the night.
Who ll guide them past the sharp rocks
Who ll warn them danger is near
Light up their darkness with hope
Banish the voyagers fear
And mark out the way.

I was about 10 at the time, I’m now 82.
