Yahweh Elohim, name of the Just,
The name Thou wilt give us tho' born of the dust,
Precious Thy promises, gracious Thy love
Leaning towards us from Thy throne above.

Strengthen Thy children, now called to be Thine,
Fill them with the spirit of Thy truth divine.
Guide them in travail and lead gently on,
Casting all care at the feet of Thy Son.

Father our hearts yearn to know Thee aright,
Born into darkness, but led into light,
Open our minds as we study Thy Word
And pierce our hearts deeply with Thy Spirit's sword.

Name of the glory to Moses revealed,
Known to Thy loved ones, to others still sealed,
Teach us Thy mercy and pour out Thy Truth,
Grace be our fellow, may love be our booth.

If error assail us, O help Thou our need
Humble us, search us that, our every deed
May spring from a true faith, strong, healthy and pure,
All glory be Thine Lord Thy purpose is sure.

Help Thou our weakness, and in it make strong
The power of Thy spirit may this be our song,
Sow thou within us, deep down in the soul,
Thy praises, Thy glory, may we these extol.

And never may pride with its fellows all vile
O'er us be the victor but quench evil guile
Clothe us in armour to fight the good fight
And that won, O Yahweh, clothe with Thy might.

--Sis. Betty Flint
