1. God of power, God of right, Guide us with thy priesthood’s might. Forge our souls in living fire; Shape them to thy great desire.
2. God of wisdom, God of truth, Take us in our eager youth; Lift us step by step to thee Thru an endless ministry.
3. God of mercy, God of love, Let thy Spirit, like the dove, Touch and humble, teach and bless, As we serve in holiness.
