Rise heart; thy Lord is risen.  

Sing his praise
Without delays,
Who takes thee by the hand,

that thou likewise with him mayst rise:
That, as his death calcined thee to dust,
His life may make thee gold, and much more, just.


Awake, my lute, and struggle for thy part
With all thy art.
The cross taught all wood to resound his name,

Who bore the same.
His stretched sinews taught all strings, what key
Is best to celebrate this most high day.
 
Consort both heart and lute, and twist a song
Pleasant and long:
Or, since all music is but three parts vied
And multiplied,
O let thy blessed Spirit bear a part,
And make up our defects with his sweet art.

Current guidance for attending church:

​

  • We are now exempt from wearing masks in Church

  • However if you wish to wear a mask for some, or all of the service, you are welcome to do so. 

  • The area at the back is for those who feel safe, and more comfortable, if they can maintain social distance.

  • The pews are for people who do not feel the need to socially distance. 

  • The church is now open during daylight hours. It will not open on Sunday before the service to enable the Rector to give everything a quick wipe down!
