Flesh of her flesh they were, spirit of her spirit, Fallen in the cause of the free. Solemn the drums thrill; Death august and royal Sings sorrow up into immortal spheres, There is music in the midst of desolation And a glory that shines upon our tears. They went with songs to the battle, they were young, Straight of limb, true of eye, steady and aglow. They were staunch to the end against odds uncounted; They fell with their faces to the foe. They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old: Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning We will remember them. They mingle not with their laughing comrades again; They sit no more at familiar tables of home; They have no lot in our labour of the day-time; They sleep beyond England's foam. But where our desires are and our hopes profound, Felt as a well-spring that is hidden from sight, To the innermost heart of their own land they are known As the stars are known to the Night; As the stars that shall be bright when we are dust, Moving in marches upon the heavenly plain; As the stars that are starry in the time of our darkness, To the end, to the end, they remain.

  • A Brief History of Smethwick Old Church (Revised 2020)
    A BRIEF HISTORY OF SMETHWICK OLD CHURCH by Brian Jones (1998) Updated by Smethwick Local History Society 2020 1 Dorothy Parkes 16th September 1644 – 7th June 1727 Foundress and Benefactress of Old Church 2 3 Until the 19th Century Smethwick lay in the parish of St. Peter’s, Harborne and before 1732 Smethwick church-goers had to make the long trek to St. Peter’s to hear the word of God, to receive the sacrament, and for baptisms, marriages and burials. It is said that ruffians and thieves from Birmingham lay in wait for them in the Lord’s Wood, where the good Smethwick folk were robbed and assaulted. Whatever the truth of that story, it must have been a muddy and miserable journey in the winter months taking anything up to two hours each way if you lived at the Oldbury side of Smethwick and many Smethwickians must have forgone the venture. Another story states that one Easter morning the good people of Smethwick travelled (most on foot) to St. Peter’s to celebrate Easter, only to find the Church locked. On enquiry Dorothy Parkes was told that the Vicar was in Lichfield on Church business, but having spoken to her friend, the wife of the Dean of Lichfield Cathedral, she heard that the Vicar had not been seen in Lichfield for months and was not there over the Easter period. Dorothy wrote to the Bishop of Lichfield to complain. Despite Smethwick’s description in the 17th century as a scattered settlement there must have been sufficient people living here for Dorothy Parkes to consider it worthwhile to pay for a chapel to be built, and their welfare, both spiritual and physical, to be provided for.
