ODE FOR COMMONWEALTH DAY
From shameless speech, and vengeful deed,
From license veiled in freedom's name,
From greed of gold and scorn of creed,
Guard Thou our fame!
In stress of days that yet may be
When hope shall rest upon the sword,
In Welfare and Adversity,
Be with us, Lord!
From license veiled in freedom's name,
From greed of gold and scorn of creed,
Guard Thou our fame!
In stress of days that yet may be
When hope shall rest upon the sword,
In Welfare and Adversity,
Be with us, Lord!
