Joe, you posted the last verse as -

Will the line hold; will it scatter and run?
Shall we at last be united in glory?
Only remembered for what we have done?
    Only remembered, only remembered,
   and only remembered for what we have done.
   Shall we at last be united in glory?
   Only remembered for what we have done?

If I try to sing it I think it fits better with the first two lines switched.

I checked the original source, and Nigel Parson acknowledged that there was a problem with the line breaks, so I fixed it. The line should start with:
Who'll sing the anthem, and who'll tell the story?
Will the line hold; will it scatter and run?
With the line breaks moved, it works. Would you agree?
-Joe-
