 The quartette then sang Cardinal Newman's grand hymn:
 Lead, Kindly Light, amid the encircling
 gloom,
 Lead Thou me on; The night is dark and I am far from
 home,
 Keep Thou my feet, do not ask to
 The distant scene; one step enough
 for me.
 I was not ever thus, nor pray'd that
 Thou
 Shouldst lead me on;
 I loved the garish day and spite of
 fears:
 Pride ruled my way, remember not
 past years.
 So long Thy power has blessed me, sure it still
 Will lead me on Der moor and fen, o'er crag and tor rent, till The night is gone. And with the morn these angel faces smile
 Which I have loved long since ana
 lost awhile
