Everything you need to follow along with the service is contained in this bulletin. For a complete list of safety protocols for worship, please see page 7 of this bulletin. VOLUNTARY Evening Song Edward C. Bairstow INTROIT A Prayer of King Henry VI Henry G. Ley Lord Jesus Christ, who created, redeemed, and preordained me to be this that I am, you know what you wish to do with me; do with me in accordance with your will, with mercy. Amen. – Text: Eton College founder’s prayer, attributed to Henry VI, sung in Latin Please stand OPENING HYMN Dear Lord and Father of mankind (Repton) Dear Lord and Father of mankind, forgive our foolish ways! Re-clothe us in our rightful mind, in purer lives thy service find, in deeper reverence, praise; in deeper reverence, praise. In simple trust like theirs who heard, beside the Syrian sea, the gracious calling of the Lord, let us, like them, without a word, rise up and follow thee; rise up and follow thee. O Sabbath rest by Galilee! O calm of hills above, where Jesus knelt to share with thee the silence of eternity interpreted by love; interpreted by love! Drop thy still dews of quietness, till all our strivings cease; take from our souls the strain and stress, and let our ordered lives confess the beauty of thy peace; the beauty of thy peace. Breathe through the heats of our desire thy coolness and thy balm; let sense be dumb, let flesh retire; speak through the earthquake, wind, and fire, O still, small voice of calm; O still, small voice of calm.

We Will Remember Them Saturday 1St November 2014 Queens’ College Chapel, Cambridge
We Will Remember Them Saturday 1st November 2014 Queens’ College Chapel, Cambridge In aid of the Poppy Appeal and Queens’ music Founded by graduates from Cambridge chapel choirs, the Godwine Choir was set up to capture the atmosphere of chamber music at university and bring it to London as part of professional life. The group is comprised of twenty-five young singers who rehearse together weekly at the church of St George the Martyr in Borough. The choir specialises in a capella music from the 20th and 21st century; they have recently performed works by a number of contemporary composers, such as Gabriel Jackson. Future plans include performances in several London venues, a recital in Buckfast Abbey and a tour to the Amalfi coast. This evening we present a reflective sequence of music and readings for All Souls' Day. We especially remember all those who lost their lives in the Great War. Find out more about us at godwinechoir.org PROGRAMME When David Heard | Thomas Tomkins Reading: Anthem for Doomed Youth, by Wilfred Owen Heraclitus | Charles Villiers Stanford Lay a Garland | Robert Pearsall Reading: Remember, by Christina Rossetti Valiant-for-Truth | Ralph Vaughan Williams Greater Love | John Ireland Reading: Lament, by Wilfrid Wilson Gibson And I Saw A New Heaven | Edgar Bainton Geistliches Lied | Johannes Brahms Reading: Drummer Hodge, by Thomas Hardy Lord, Thou hast been Our Refuge | Ernest Walker My Soul, There is a Country | Charles Hubert Hastings Parry Reading: Ecclesiastes, Ch. 3, v. 1-8 For the Fallen | Douglas Guest Bring us, O Lord God | William Henry Harris Reading: A Valediction: Forbidding Mourning, by John Donne Justorum Animae | Gabriel Jackson When David Heard Thomas Tomkins When David heard that Absalom was slain he went up to his chamber over the gate and wept; and thus he said: O my son, my son, Absalom my son, would God I had died for thee, O Absalom my son.
