53. God Bless our Sabbath-School

1 God bless our Sabbath-school!
Firmly united,
Under thy banner thy glory we sing;
Strength of each youthful heart,
Hope never blighted,
Be thou our portion,
Jesus, our King.

2 God bless our Sabbath-school!
Almighty Father,
Shelter thy children in peace 'neath thy wing;
Guide in the narrow way,
Heav'nward us gather,
Be thou our refuge,
Jesus, our King.

3 God bless our Sabbath-school!
Glorious Defender,
Under thy banner we march as we sing;
Lead us to victory;
Never surrender,
Thy name must conquer,
Jesus, our King.
