Shadow of the Cross

For Kung Kung
1927-2007


Rest now, in the shadow of the cross.

Receive your gold
Remove your dross
Freed at last from pain;
That which you count for gain
We count for loss.

The dark nights
The little lights
Of hope at last dismayed;
In hope we wait
In ground now laid
The soldier has finished the fight.

Rest now, in the shadow of the cross.
