<poem> | |||
Blessèd feasts of blessèd martyrs, | |||
Saintly days of saintly men, | |||
With affection’s recollections | |||
Greet we your return again. | |||
Mighty deeds they wrought, and wonders, | |||
While a frame of flesh they bore; | |||
We, with meetest praise and sweetest, | |||
Honor them forevermore. | |||
Faith unblenching, hope unquenching, | |||
Well-loved Lord, and single heart, | |||
Thus they, glorious and victorious, | |||
Bravely bore the martyr’s part. | |||
Blood in slaughter poured like water, | |||
Torments long and heavy chain, | |||
Flame, and axe, and laceration, | |||
They endured, and conquered pain. | |||
While they passed through divers tortures, | |||
Till they sank by death opprest, | |||
Earth’s rejected were elected, | |||
To have portion with the blest. | |||
By contempt of worldly pleasures, | |||
And by mighty battle done; | |||
Have they merited with angels, | |||
To be knit for ay in one. | |||
Wherefore made co-heirs of glory, | |||
Ye that sit with Christ on high, | |||
Join to ours your supplication | |||
As for grace and peace we cry, | |||
That, this weary life completed, | |||
And its many labors past, | |||
We may merit to be seated | |||
In our Father’s home at last. <small>[[John Mason Neale]], 1851.</small> | |||
