An old recording from BBC Radio 4 – “Sunday Worship”

A beautiful setting of Stephenson’s text, written and dedicated as a wedding gift to friends of the composer.
Trusty, dusky, vivid, true,With eyes of gold and bramble-dew,Steel-true and blade-straight,The great artificerMade my mate.
Honour, anger, valour, fire;A love that life could never tire,Death quench or evil stir,The mighty masterGave to her.
Teacher, tender comrade, wife,A fellow-farer true through life,Heart-whole and soul-freeThe august fatherGave to me.
