And in their deepest, darkest hour
the community came together
A time filled with fear, sadness and grief 
that will be remembered forever 

To the volunteer firefighters 
we salute your steadfast bravery 
Your selfless and courageous actions 
will be observed in our history 

For all the lives protected and saved
just how many will remain unknown 
Your work will never be forgotten 
our respect will always be shown

So many people have given so much 
in so many different ways 
So much charity and kindness shared
over these difficult past few days 

There will be work that goes unnoticed 
by those who answer the call of need 
We may not get the opportunity 
to thank them all for their good deeds 

The worst of times can bring out the best in folk 
and this time has proved this true 
To the good souls of Kirkby Lonsdale 
we give heartfelt thanks for all you do
