Here is my stone-ribbed nest...'

We pray that in your love you hear this prayer,
Although your grace is cried for everywhere.
To save us from despair, we need you near us:
Lord, graciously hear us.

So we on earth, we should be saints as well;
We wayward wayfarers whom they invite
To blaze with love; to set the world alight;
To join them in the joy in which they dwell.
Happy All Saints' Day!

Happy Lincolnshire Day! Here to mark the day is the tale of St. James' church in Louth, England's third-tallest medieval structure, and of the sermon preached there by the vicar on this day in 1536, which began the Lincolnshire Rising.

'Neither wealth nor fame they reap,
But they have a different reward:
These men see the works of the Lord
And his wonders in the deep.'
