Title: For Donny and St George!
Post by: Sprotyrover on April 23, 2014, 09:10:46 am

Morning gang happy St George's day to all Doncastrians, let's be proud in the fact that the first Church dedicated to George was built in Doncaster in 1064 AD.

And did those feet in ancient time
Walk upon England's mountains green?
And was the holy Lamb of God
On England's pleasant pastures seen?
And did the Countenance Divine
Shine forth upon our clouded hills?
And was Jerusalem builded here
Among these dark Satanic mills?
Bring me my bow of burning gold:
Bring me my arrows of desire:
Bring me my spear: O clouds unfold!
Bring me my chariot of fire.
I will not cease from mental fight,
Nor shall my sword sleep in my hand
Till we have built Jerusalem
In England's green and pleasant land.
