Sign of the Love Divine
That bends to bear the load
Of all who suffer, all who bleed,
Along life’s thorny road:
Sign of the Heart Humane,
That through the darkest fight
Would bring to wounded friend and foe
A ministry of light:
O dear and holy sign,
Lead onward like a star!
The armies of the just are thine,
And all we have and are.
