“Gashed with honourable scars, Low in Glory's lap they lie; Though they fell, they fell like stars, Streaming splendour through the sky.”
James Montgomery

“Calvary's mournful mountain climb; there adoring at His feet, mark that miracle of time ─ God's own sacrifice complete.”
James Montgomery

“As I climb'd the mountain's side,
Where the Lake and Valley meet,
All my country's power and pride
Lay in ruins at my feet.”
James Montgomery
