  • Sir Terence Rattigan, CBE 1911 – 1977
    A Centenary Service of Celebration for the Life and Work of Sir Terence Rattigan, CBE 1911 – 1977 “God from afar looks graciously upon a gentle master.” St Paul’s Covent Garden Tuesday 22nd May 2012 11.00am Order of Service PRELUDE ‘O Soave Fanciulla’ from La Bohème by G. Puccini Organist: Simon Gutteridge THE WELCOME The Reverend Simon Grigg The Lord’s Prayer Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive them that trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen. TRIBUTE DAVID SUCHET, CBE written by Geoffrey Wansell 1 ARIA ‘O Mio Babbino Caro’ from Gianni Schicchi by G. Puccini CHARLOTTE PAGE HYMN And did those feet in ancient time Walk upon England's mountains green? And was the holy Lamb of God On England's pleasant pastures seen? And did the countenance divine Shine forth upon our clouded hills? And was Jerusalem builded here Among those dark satanic mills? Bring me my bow of burning gold! Bring me my arrows of desire! Bring me my spear! O clouds, unfold! Bring me my chariot of fire! I will not cease from mental fight, Nor shall my sword sleep in my hand, Till we have built Jerusalem In England's green and pleasant land. ADDRESS ‘The Final Test’ SIR RONALD HARWOOD, CBE 2 HYMN I vow to thee, my country, all earthly things above, Entire and whole and perfect, the service of my love: The love that asks no question, the love that stands the test, That lays upon the altar the dearest and the best; The love that never falters, the love that pays the price, The love that makes undaunted the final sacrifice.
