Remembrance Day Service Monday, November 11, 2024 Cobble Hill, BC
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.
Order of Service at the Cenotaph
O Canada
Invocation: Capt (Ret’d) the Most Rev Andrew Hutchison, Bishop Ordi- nary to the Forces
Hymn: O God, Our Help in Ages Past
O God, our help in ages past, our hope for years to come, our shelter from the stormy blast, and our eternal home:
Under the shadow of thy throne thy saints have dwelt secure; sufficient is thine arm alone, and our defence is sure.
Before the hills in order stood, or earth received its frame, from everlasting thou art God, to endless years the same.
A thousand ages in thy sight are like an evening gone, short as the watch that ends the night before the rising sun.
O God, our help in ages past, our hope for years to come, be thou our guard while troubles last, and our eternal home.
