Description
Excerpt from The One Hundred and Five Martyrs of Tyburn
Those who visit this Sanctuary are asked to pray for the Benefactors who have done their part in the work, and they are requested also to give their offerings towards the building of the new and glorious Sanctuary which some day must replace this little lowly Shrine.
The present altar ornaments and stained glass will all be retained in the new Chapel, and will show to far greater advantage than they can in their present cramped surround ings.
Would it not be a seemly and beautiful me morial to our glorious dead w ho have fallen in the present war if, in the very heart of London, a sanctuary of unceasing prayer should be raised to the glory of the Sacred Heart of Jesus in memory of the Martyrs of England? Here at Tyburn the martyrs of the olden times would clasp hands with their heroic sons of to-day, and around the Throne of the Eucharistic Lamb would rise unceasingly from the alternate choirs of that white-robed host, the hymn of triumph and victory, the Warriors'' song of peace.
