Earl Kitchener memorial card

• January 24, 2018 23:36:10 Thomas A. Lingner

  We mourn our Army's hero,

    Of Godly deeds' renown;

  His name our hearts shall treasure,

    A King - without a crown!

  We mourn our noble seamen,

    So valiant, true and brave,

  Their loyal, grand ambition

    Our shores from Huns to save.

  
  

  In Freedom's name they suffered,

    For righteousness they died;

  Theirs not to see the vict'ry,

    And welcome it with pride.

  To us they leave the conflict;

    Then let us faithful be;

  With God as our Defender

    We soon shall triumph see.

  
  

  O God, in highest heavens,

    Our wayward spirits bend;

  In grace to our offences

    Thine ear in pity lend.

  Teach us to trust Thee fully,

    To love Thy holy will;

  That so our favoured nation

    Be favoured Britain still!
