Church and Lychgate standing there

Waits for us to come in prayer.

Praising God for what we’ve had

All things good but nothing bad.

 

The vane it sits upon the spire

Listens to Gods heavenly choir;

Sitting there in wind and calm

Sometimes it hears a quiet psalm.

 

The people sitting in the pew

Why, oh why. are they but few?

He listens to our every need

Why should the Lord our bodies feed?

 

The tombstones standing all erect

To ones before we do inspect;

They left their mark before they went

Some were old and some were bent.

 

The grass is now cut with a mower

And head flies off a little flower

The Church it now looks spick and span

We thank you dear Lord for this man.

(The man in the Poem represents anyone who does all the mundane things like mowing and general maintenance to the Church to keep It in good order.)
