Burial of Captain Barry C. Bunt
( late of 12th Royal Lancers )
Norwich Cemetery , May 7th , 1924
The following hymn will be sung at the grabeside :
ABIDE with me ; fast falls the eventide ;
The
me abide !
When other helpers fail , and comforts
flee ,
Help of the helpless , O abide with me !
Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day ; Earth's joys grow dim , its glories pass
away ;
Change and decay in all around I see ; O thou who changest not , abide with me !
I need thy presence every passing hour : What but thy grace can foil the tempter's power ?
Who like thyself my guide and stay can
be ?
Through cloud and sunshine , O abide with me !
I fear no foe , with thee at hand to bless : Ills have no weight , and tears no bitter
ness :
Where is death's sting ? where , grave , thy victory ?
I triumph still , if thou abide with me
Reveal thyself before my closing eyes : Shine through the gloom and point me to the skies . Heaven's morning breaks , and earth's vain shadows flee :
In life and death , O Lord , abide with me !
At the conclusion the Band will play
" God Bless the Prince of Wales "
and
" The National Anthem . "
