Now Is The Hour Lyrics

Artist: Bing Crosby (Buy Bing Crosby CDs)

Now is the hour
When we must say goodbye.
Soon you'll be sailing
Far across the sea.

While you're away
Oh, then, remember me.
When you return
You'll find me waiting here.

Sunset glow fades in the west.
Night o'er the valley is creeping.
Birds cuddle down in their nest
Soon all the world will be sleeping.

Now is the hour
When we must goodbye.
Soon you'll be sailing
Far across the sea.

While you're away
Oh, then, remember me.
When you return
You'll find me waiting here.

Just heard the Gospel Group Legacy Five sing "Headin' Home and knew the tune sounded familier and it was to the tune of Now is the Hour. My mom use to sing that to us all the time as children.

I would like a single CD of "Now is the Hour" to attach to a book of memories which I am making to give my husband for our 61st wedding anniversary. We became engaged and he was leaving to go overseas.

Is it possible to find a CD of Now is the hour on a single CD, Where?

Rhoda, just search Youtube, there's a nice Guy Lombardo version and many others if that one doesn't suit you.
