Abide with me soft falls the eventide the darkness deepens lord with me abide when other helpers fail and comforts flee help of the helpless Oh abide with me.

If I am lucky enough to get a Final ticket I will cry like a bugger when this is played, as it was a hymn at my Mums funeral.

The last verse always gets me Hold Thou Thy cross before my closing eyes; Shine through the gloom and point me to the skies. Heaven’s morning breaks, and earth’s vain shadows flee; In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me.

Heaven’s morning breaks, and earth’s vain shadows flee; In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me. wow that's pretty awesome new the first verse but it obviously uplifts from there.

Shine through the gloom & point me to the skies
If ever a verse for a Stoke banner...then this nails it.

Without devaluing the thread in one bit, was going to have a Vis Unita Fortior Tattoo...
....but "Shine through..." & the memories attached to it make it the perfect choice
