  2. On Leaving Lough Derg.
    Good-bye Good-bye, dear love Lough Derg
    The boat waits at the quay.
    Most holy shrine where Patrick prayed
    I'm going away from thee;
    And hundreds more along with me, will
    Soon land on the shore,
    And we trust in God's own Providence
    To visit thee once more;
    Island! Most prized of Islands, Island of
    Peace and prayer.
    No worldly thought dare touch the mind
