MAGNIFICAT AND NUNC DIMITTIS IN A

D. McK. Williams

AFTER THE THIRD COLLECT, HYMN

1 God of our fathers, known of old,

de coven

3 If, drunk with sight of power, we loose wild tongues that have not three in awe,

Such boastings as the Gentiles use,

Lord of our far-flung battle line, Beneath whose aweful hand we hold

over palm and pine: ord God of hosts, be with us yet,

Let's forget, let's forget. 2 The tumult and the shouting dies; The captains and the kings depart;

Or lesser breeds without the law: Lord God of hosts, be with yet Lest we forget, lest we forget.

4 For heathen heart that puts her In recking tube and iron shar All valiant dust that builds on dust,

Still stand and a contrite heart: An thine ancient sacrifice,

And, guarding, calls not thee to guard: For frantic boast and foolish word,

Lord God of hosts, be with us yet, Lest we forget, lest we forget.

Thy mercy on thy people, Lord. Amen.

A PRAYER FOR THOSE IN THE SERVICES OF THE UNITED NATIONS A Prayer to be repeated by all present:

Increase, O God, the spirit of neighborliness among us, that in peril we may uphold one another, in calamity serve one another, in suffering tend one another and in homelessness and exile befriend one another. Grant us brave and enduring hearts that we may strengthen one another, till the disciplines and testing of these days be ended, and thou dost give again peace in our time, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

SERMON

THE REVEREND CANON WEST

AT THE OFFERING, ANTHEM

Vaughan-Williams

Let us now praise famous men, and our fathers that begat us. Such as did bear rule in their kingdoms, men renowned for their power, leaders of the people by their counsels, and by their knowledge. Such as found out musical tunes, and recited verses in writing: All these were honored in their generations and were the glory of their times. And some there be, which have no memorial, are perished, as though they had never been. Their bodies are buried in peace, but their names liveth for evermore.

(Offering in aid of Allied War Relief)

The inside second page of this programme states:

THE LAST POST

THE NATIONAL ANTHEMS O say, can ye see, by the dawn's early light,

What so proudly we hail'd at the twilight's last gleaming. Whose broad stripes and bright stars thro' the perilous night.

O'er the ramparts we watch'd were so gallantly streaming

And the rockets red glare, the bombs bursting in air, Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.

Osay, does that star-spangled banner yet wave

O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

THE BLESSING

RECESSION OF THE CLERGY AND THE CHOIR

God Save our Gracious King Long live our noble King.

God save the King.

Send him victorious, happy and glorious, long to reign over us.

God Save the King.
