“Remember Lord” SECOND N.Z.E.F. MIDDLE EAST
HYMN Writing from the Middle East, a serviceman with the New Zealand Division has forwarded the following copy of a popular hymn which is sung at every church service to the tune “Lead Kindly Light.” The hymn is entitled “Remember Lord,” and the author is unknown. Thou Who hast all Thy people in Thy Sight To Thee we come. Keep Thou New Zealand’s sons within Thy care Afar from home: Keep Thou their souls, in steadfastness and right, Remember, Lord, New Zealand’s sons to-night. Be Thou their refuge in the darkest hour, Be Thou their Stay; Stretch forth Thy hand, Show Thine Almighty Power, In Thine own way; • Thou didst in Galilee reveal Thy might— Oh! Comfort, Lord, New Zealand’s sons to-night. And if, at last, O Lord, for us they die In mortal strife; Bear them in mercy to Thy Home on high, . From Death to Life. Dispel the gloom with pure celestial light— Remember, Lord, New Zealand’s sons to-night.
