God Bless Our School

Representative Text

1 Our Father, ‘tis to Thee
We bring this earnest plea,
God bless our school!
Give us Thy presence here,
Fill us with holy fear,
Make this a place most dear,
God bless our school!

2 Our Savior from above,
Guide with Thy tender love
Our Bible school;
Help us Thy work to do,
Our number large or few,
Teach us to e’er be true;
God bless our school!

3 Spirit of God, so near,
Our Guide and Comforter,
Rule in our school;
Here guilt of sin be seen,
Faith, hope, and love begin,
Souls dead be born again;
God bless our school!

4 Great God, blest Trinity,
Thou who art One and Three,
Bless this our school!
Now hear us while we pray,
Take all our sins away,
Meet with us this Lord’s Day;
God bless our school!
