St Georges Church
Presbyterian of
England.
I with uncovered heart In every nobler mood
Salute the Sacred Dead We feel the orient of their spirit glow
Who went and who return not- Part of our life's unalterable good
Say not so Of all our saintlier aspiration
I see them muster in a gleaming row They come transfigured back
With ever-youthful brows Secure from change in their high
that nobler show; hearted ways
We find in our dull road their Beautiful evermore, and with the rays
shining track Of morn in their white Shields of
Expectation!
