St. John's and House of Bethany Epsicopal School School Ode and School Prayer

 

Ode

Alma mater to thee we raise;
Our joyful voices in thy Hall,
Thy dear name shall we always praise,
And on thy precepts ever call.

Dear school of love to thee we bring,
Our grateful tributes to thy light,
Thy cherished fame shall ever reign
In hearts of youth with love and might.

The name E.H.S. shall ever reign;
On Africa's shore our native land,
Thy sons and daughters thee will serve;
In church and state a mighty band.

Refrain:

All hail, thrice hail, Oh E.H.S.
To thee we shall fo'er be true,
Our colors white and blue we bless
And pledge our loyalty and might.

Lyrics by E. Seaku King, music by Fr. J.D.K. Baker

Prayer

O Lord, who has set us here to do thy will,
Accept and sanctify our lives
By the inspiration of thy Holy Spirit.
Teach us to live together in love, joy and peace.
In our games, true sportsmanship,
And in our lives, perfect the good work that has begun in us.
Give us the courage to persevere throughout
The days of our lives;
Through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.
