"Who said that no-one would be marching this Anzac Day?"
In memory of our soldiers who fought for our nation. © Mark Knight.
Nay, but his spirit lives; be very sure.
Year follows year, and earthly things depart;
But what he, dying, gave us shall endure
Now and for ever in the nation’s heart.
Now and for ever; tho’ the flesh be gone,
Still shall that Spirit bid us, “Carry on!”
Year follows year, and earthly things depart;
But what he, dying, gave us shall endure
Now and for ever in the nation’s heart.
Now and for ever; tho’ the flesh be gone,
Still shall that Spirit bid us, “Carry on!”
