                                                    Integrity and faithfulness,

                                                      the light and guiding of 
                                                      Our Holy Spirit these gifts 
                                                      are constantly bestowed 
                                                      upon the faithful and the 
                                                      true of heart, and all obedient

                                                      world. Such is the dignity 
                                                      and honour - and the cost 
                                                      of their redeemed humanity.
