Installation Ode.

Blest Ruler, at whose word

The universe was stirred,

And there was light;

Look now with gracious love

From Thy bright home above,

Direct in every move,

Each proved, Sir Knight.

In mysteries well skilled,

Their hearts with courage filled,

Behold they stand;

Strengthen their faith in thee,

Let hope their anchor be,

And heaven-born charity

Mark their command.

Endure with holy light

Each suppliant, Sir Knight;

May each one prove

Faithful in watch and word;

Strong the oppressed, to guard

And win the just reward

Of Faith and Love.
