10:56     HYMN – “ABIDE WITH ME”
    Abide with me: fast falls the eventide;
    The darkness deepens, Lord, with me abide;
    When other helper fails, and comforts flee,
    Help of the helpless, O abide with me
    Hold thou thy cross before my closing eyes;
    Shine through the gloom and point me to the skies
    Heaven’s morning breaks and earth’s vain shadows flee;
    In life, in death, O LORD, abide with me.

ACT OF REMEMBRANCE
“They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old;
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning,
We Will Remember Them”
