A Review.
And faithful to the Craft they own , Their actions bright we see : No brighter virtues ever shone , Than those of Masonry . Chorus—Let heart and hand united stand , Avhilst firm and free , With Square and Compass , too ; We pull together ; none like Ave Can be so just and true .
" When cares oppress , and ' gainst the stream The vessel labours hard , Masonic Light shall brightly gleam Ancl have its own reward . The Sacred Law shall help us on ,
Lifes journey Avandring through , To cheer us as the night comes on , A Compass sure ancl true . " And Avhen the lamp of age grows dim , And life seems ebbing fast , We shall not fear death ' s shadows grim ,
If Masons to the last . For bright shall shine the beams of love To those , Avho just and fair , Look upward to the Lodge above , Ancl act upon the Square . "
We all shall appreciate , Ave think , the truly Masonic sentiment of Song XL : — ¦ Air- "Jock 0 ' Hazeldean . " Let's sing the well-knoAvn theme of old , That Masons love to hear ; That ' s many a time ancl oft been told
, To those assembled here . 'Tis " Prosper Avell our noble Art , " Far o ' er the earth and sea ; For dear to every faithful heart , Is good Freemasonry .
" The wisest king that ever reigned , Has firmly laid the stone , That true for ages has remained , From which our Craft has groAvn And though The Temple is no more , By heathen ' s base decree , The Art that built it ' s as before , And called Freemasonry .
" Then glory to the Architect , Whose rule for ever stands , Whose Name the Craft with awe respect , And all our praise demands . And may He , ruling from On High , Still present with us be , Whene ' er Ave square our actions by The rules of Masonry . "
All loyal Freemasons amongst us , and Ave are all loyal , will greet warmly the Avords of Song XIV . : — Air— " God Bless the Prince of Wales . " " We ' re met once more together , To join in social throng ,
Ancl praise the Art that can impart A bond of union strong . Then let us all , as Brothers , Upon the Level part , As on the Square we love to meet , With true Masonic heart .
Chorus—From pole to pole resounding , Let nations all incline , To learn the Art Ave love so Avell , Freemasonry divine . " Our secrets are a Avonder To those Avho will not learn ;
Our virtues all are noble , Bright as the sun they burn . Our Craftes , men Avork together , A Temple high they raise , And all unite with powerful might , To celebrate its praise .
" Our Lodge is consecrated , It stands on Holy Ground ; And favour in His perfect eyes , Freemasonry has found . Built on the Truth so stedfast , Kept by the Craft secure , To endless ages distant far Our work shall aye endure . "
