School prayer's song

1.We build our School on Thee, O Lord

To Thee we bring our common need :

The loving heart, the helpful word,

The tender thought, the kindly deed-

With these we pray

Thy spirit may

Enrich and bless our School alway.

2.We work together in Thy sight,

We live together in Thy love;

Guide Thou our falt’ring steps aright

and lift our thoughts to heav’n above:

Dear Lord, we pray

Thy spirit may

Be present in our School alway.

3.Hold Thou each hand, to keep it just,

Touch Thou, our lips, and make them pure,

If Thou art with us Lord we must

Be faithful friends and comrades sure,

Dear Lord we pray

Thy spirit may

Be present in out school alway.

4.We change but Thou art still the same

The same good master, teacher, friend.

We change but Lord we bear Thy name

To journey with it to the end

And so we pray, Thy spirit may

Be present in out school alway.
