IN THE GATHERING OF HOPEFUL HEARTS

 

In the gathering of hopeful hearts

The flame of peace does thrive

A flame whose embers glowed

When my granddad was still alive

The lads and pals in distant lands

To a man did purposely strive

They kept that tiny ember tended

To ensure that it would survive

And many a lad remained forever

To keep the flame of peace alive

WHEN KITCHENER CALLED

When they hear the recruiter’s call And they take the King’s shilling They’re trained and uniformed And marched towards the killing
