Thoughts For The Times.
New Zealand fou Thee. “For the faith and love that I hear, New Zealand for thee, For the magic and opell of thy air, Thy earth and thy sea. Of words I would weave thee a crown Of blessing a’id prayer. , With love for its fair centre-stone, Bure, priceless and rare, May wine for thy heart be outpoured, Red wipe for £11 y soil), Thy bread and thy oil be assured,
AVhilst centuries roll. May thy sword in its scabbard be bright, Ip battle bo keen, To champion thy Gpd and His Right, With hpart! and hand clean. So ever brave, honest and wise, Thrice crowned and tlirjce blest, Shall tho piped of the years be thy pride, Love, Honour, a|id Res).”
