Day-star of England to herald her morn, That, everywhere breaking and brightening soon, Sheds on us now the full sunshine of noon, And fills us with blessings in Church and in State Children of Alfred, the Good and the Great! Chorus, — Hail to his Jubilee Day, The Day of a thousand years ! Anglo-Saxons ! in love are we met. To honour a name we can never forget ! Father, and Founder, and King of a race That reigns and rejoices in every place, — Root of a tree that o'ershadows the earth, First of... a Family blest from his birth, 21* 246 THE DAY OF A THOUSAND YEARS. Blest in this stem of their strength and their state, Alfred the Wise, and the Grood, and the Great! Chorus, — Hail to his Jubilee Day, The Day of a thousand years ! Children of Alfred, from every clime. Your glory shall live to the death-day of Time ! And then in bliss shall ever expand O'er measureless realms of the Heavenly Land! For you, like him, serve God and your Race, And gratefully look on the birthday of Grace. — Then honour to Alfred!
