ON WESTMINSTER BRIDGE
Across the River Thames is the centre of government
the Palace of Westminster shines out in the morning sun;
behind the glowing Parliament is the Abbey in white
beside the shrine of the State stands the symbol of God!
Hand in hand are the powers that govern our lives
the secular and sacred in charge, clasped together.
Beside the river, I will not be cowed by the gold that glitters
for I am but a little boat, and yours is the rudder I need!
(Compare psalm 125.)
