THE LAY HYMN

Laymen now have thus assembled,  In Thy blessed name, Oh God.  Guide us in our true endeavor,  Light the pathway that we trod;  Give us strength to ever labor for Thy cause  Give us strength to ever labor for Thy cause.     We are banded one in union,  To fulfill Thy just command.  May we be Thy true disciples,  Holding to Thy mighty hand;  Give us blessings from the fountain of Thy love  Give us blessings from the fountain of Thy love.     As we walk this Christian journey,  Let us keep our amour bright.  Let our works be pure and holy  That we stand within Thy sight;  Laymen soldiers, strong in unity and love  Laymen soldiers, strong in unity and love.     May we stand before Thine altar,  Pledging Lord to work for Thee.  In the vineyard, in the pastures  Let us Lord Thy pilgrims be;  Let us lift the cross forever to the skies,  Let us lift the cross forever to the skies. 

  

  Tune: Guide Me O Thou Great Jehovah written by Frances A. Walston  


THE LAY BENEDICTION

May God bless us with the true spirit of Christianity.  That we may live together, not as man over man, but as lay persons working with God.  Amen.
