Our Father Who art in Heaven,
Hallowed be Thy name.
Thy Kingdom come,
Thy will be done
On earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread
And forgive us our trespasses
As we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation
But deliver us from all evil. Amen.

Oh God! Hear my prayer.
Day and night ‘I am in Thy care’.
Look upon me from above,
Bless all those with whom I pray
And make me better everyday.

Oh God! We thank thee for the night
And the pleasant morning light.
For the rest and food and loving care,
And all that makes the world so fair.
Help us to do the things we should,
To be to others kind and good
In all we do, at work at play,
To grow more loving every day.

My God I am your little child
And have not much to give.
But take my pure and loving heart
And come and live in me.
Take all my efforts to be good.
Help me to do the things I should
And teach me to pray.
Dear God, bless my father, my mother,
My brothers and sisters,
My country and its leaders,
My teachers and my school.
Dear God bless me and make me
A happy and good child.

Look down with favour upon us
as we assemble here
to praise Thee O Lord.
Grant that in this school
there may be laid the foundation
of a character well-pleasing to thee,
Be thou our guardian and guide in all things
and help us to be faithful and true
to the ideals set before us here.
O God, our Creator and Father,
by whom we are made
help us to remember
that we BELONG to THEE.
Prevent us from doing any action this day
that would make us ashamed
of being called thine own children.
Bless our parents, teachers and friends,
our country and its leaders;
all those who do us good
and even those who seek to hurt us.
Keep our young minds and hearts open
to all who need us.
We pray for peace in the world
and for the joys of life eternal. Amen.

Oh God, THANK You
for all Your wonderful blessings.
I thank You for life, health
and protection from harm
to my body and soul.
I THANK You for all the good things
and the happiness that have come to me
through my home and parents,
my school and my teachers,
my schoolmates and close friends
and all those who love me.
I am truly SORRY
that I so often take all those blessings
as though they were due to me.
But, I am MOST SORRY
when I repay Your goodness to me
with ingratitude and sin.
I WANT TO LOVE AND PLEASE YOU.
I am DETERMINED to do this.
Please give me the courage and love that I need. Amen.

O God, giver of all good gifts,
we place our minds and hearts before You
asking You to help us in our examination.
Send upon us Your Holy Spirit
to help us remember all that we have learnt.
Keep us calm and alert
so that we may be able to do our best
and glorify and praise You always.

O angel of God my guardian dear,
to whom God’s love commits me here.
Ever this day be at my side
to light and guard to rule and guide.

Praise God, praise God,
Praise him in the morning,
Praise him in the noontime.
Praise God, praise God,
Praise Him when the sun goes down.

Love God, love God,
Love Him in the morning,
Love Him in the noontime,
Love God, love God,
Love Him when the sun goes down.

Thank God, thank God,
Thank Him in the morning,
Thank him in the noontime.
Thank God, thank God,
Thank Him when the sun goes down.

We shall overcome (3) some day.
Oh deep In my heart, I do believe
That we shall overcome some day.

We’ll walk hand in hand (3) some day.
Oh deep in my heart, I do believe
That we shall overcome some day.

We shall live in peace (3) some day.
Oh deep in my heart, I do believe
That we shall overcome some day.

We are not afraid (2) today.
Oh deep in my heart, I do believe
that we shall overcome some day.

The time to be happy is now,
The place to be happy is here,
And the way to be happy ,
Is to make others happy.
And we’ll have a little heaven, right here

Thank You for the world so sweet,
Thank You for the food we eat,
Thank for the birds that sing,
Thank You for everything.

This little guiding light of mine,
I’m gonna let it shine (3)
Let it shine all the time, let it shine.

Hide it under a bushel? Oh no,
I’m gonna let it shine (3)
Let it shine all the time, let it shine.

Take this little light round the world,
I’m gonna let it shine (3)
Let it shine all the time, let it shine.

Make my light burn for you,
I’m gonna let it shine (3)
Let it shine all the time, let it shine.

God our Father looks on us, with love
All the time. (2)
He says I love you all the time (2)
I will love you forever (3) all the time.

He says, I am with you all the time (2)
I am with you forever (3) all the time.

Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high.
Ref.: Into that heaven of freedom my Father let my country awake!
‘Where knowledge is free’
Where the world has not been broken up into fragments by narrow domestic walls,
Where words come out from the depths of truth,
Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection,
Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way,
Into the dreary sands of dead habit,
Where the mind is led forward by thee,
Into ever widening thought and action,
Into that heaven of freedom my Father, let my country awake.

Let there be love shared among us
Let there be love in our eyes
May now Your love sweep this nation
Cause us O Lord to arise,

Give us a fresh understanding
Of brotherly love that is real
Let there be love shared among us,
Let there be love.

Let there be peace shared among us…
Let there be joy shared among us…

This world You have made is a beautiful place:
It tells the power of Your love.
We rejoice in the beauty of Your world.
From the seas to the heavens above.

The morning whispers of purity;
The evening of Your peace.
The thunder booms Your exuberance
In the awesome power You release

The tenderness of a new born child
The gentleness of the rain
Simplicity in a single cell,
And complexity in a brain

Your stillness rests in a silent pool, infinity drifts in space
Your grandeur straddles the mountain tops
And we see Your face in each face

It takes courage to answer a call
It takes courage to give your all,
It takes courage to risk your name,
It takes courage to be true.

It takes courage to dare what no other will share
To be standing alone one whom no one will own,
To be ready to stake for another man’s sake
It takes courage to be true.

It takes courage to say, what you know will not pay,
To give each one his share, though there’ll be less to spare.
To be seeking no more than the neighbour next door
It takes courage to be true.

There shall be showers of blessings,
This is the promise of love.
There shall be seasons refreshing,
Sent from the saviour above.

Showers of blessings,
Showers of blessings we need,
Mercy drops round us are falling,
But for the showers we plead.

There shall be showers of blessings,
Send them upon us, O Lord
Grant to us now a refreshing
Come and now honour Thy Word.

There shall be showers of blessings,
Oh that today they might fall,
Now as to God we’re confessing,
Now as on Jesus we call.
