“For, while our souls in darkness dwell,
We know that Thou art there.”

Alfred Noyes (1880–1958) English poet

Dedication, later published as "A Prayer in Time of War"

Context: p>Grant us the single heart once more
That mocks no sacred thing,
The Sword of Truth our fathers wore
When Thou wast Lord and King. Let darkness unto darkness tell
Our deep unspoken prayer;
For, while our souls in darkness dwell,
We know that Thou art there.</p
