Excerpt from One Hundreth Anniversary of the Wapping Congregational Meeting House: Erected 1801 and Occupied 1802 in South Windsor, Connecticut
The Century Cycle.
The centuries have run their round,
The Fathers sleep beneath the ground.
God's acres hold their precious dust,
While God, in whom they put their trust,
Their spirits keep against that day
When heaven and earth shall pass away
And kingdoms be, by promised word,
The kingdoms of His Christ, our Lord.
Whence came these men of courage tried
Who for their faith had gladly died
If by their death that faith could be
God's gift to lands beyond the sea?
In ancient annals we may read, -
God sifted nations for this seed.
The rack, the dungeon, sword and stake,
Where martyrs died for Jesus' sake,
This dreadful work of sifting did.
