THE HISTORY

Tyndale University College & Seminary was founded in 1894 as the Toronto
Bible Training School. Later known as Toronto Bible College, it merged
with the London College of Bible and Missions in 1968 to become Ontario
Bible College. The Seminary was established in 1976 to offer graduate
theological education. In 1998, the name Tyndale was assumed, honouring
William Tyndale (1494-1536), the early English reformer whose commitment
to making Scripture available to all persons led him to undertake the first
English translation of the Bible. He is a model for scholarship, faith, and
vision. In 2003, Tyndale was accorded university college status by the
Province of Ontario. In 2007, Tyndale received approval from the Ontario
Ministry of Training, Colleges and Universities and from the Ontario College
of Teachers to offer a Bachelor of Education program. The Seminary's
graduate degrees, including the new Doctor of Ministry degree, are
accredited by The Association of Theological Schools in the United States
and Canada (ATS). In 2007, Tyndale purchased a new campus at the Sisters
of St. Joseph, Morrow Park. Tyndale is an evangelical, transdenominational
school with over 1,200 students and more than 9,000 alumni.

THE CREST

The centre piece of the crest for Tyndale University College & Seminary is
a lantern, symbolic of Psalm 119:105: Your word is a lamp to my feet and
a light for my path. Below the lantern is the Greek motto douloi Christou
(servants of Christ) declaring the vision of the school for all students, faculty,
staff, and alumni to serve the Church and the world for the glory of God.

[ Heading 5 ]
THE MISSION

PROCESSIONAL

[ Hymn title ]
PRAISE THE SOURCE OF FAITH AND LEARNING

[ verse 1 ]
Praise the source of faith and learning
who has sparked and stoked the mind
with a passion for discerning
how the world has been designed.
Let the sense of wonder flowing
from the wonders we survey
keep our faith forever growing
and renew our need to pray.

[ verse 2 ]
God of wisdom, we acknowledge
that our science and our art
and the breadth of human knowledge
only partial truth impart.
Far beyond our calculation
lies a depth we cannot sound
where your purpose for creation
and the pulse of life are found.

[ verse 3 ]
May our faith redeem the blunder
of believing that our thought
has displaced the grounds for wonder
which the ancient prophets taught.
May our learning curb the error
which unthinking faith can breed
lest we justify some terror
with an antiquated creed.

[ verse 4 ]
As two currents in a river
fight each other's undertow
Till converging they deliver
one coherent steady flow;
Blend, O God, our faith and learning
till they carve a single course.
Till they join as one, returning
praise and thanks to You, their Source.

[ Hymn title ]
IN CHRIST ALONE

[ verse 1 ]
In Christ alone my hope is found
He is my light, my strength, my song
This cornerstone, this solid ground
Firm through the fiercest drought and storm
What heights of love, what depths of peace
When fears are stilled, when strivings cease
My Comforter, my All in All
Here in the love of Christ I stand

[ verse 2 ]
In Christ alone, who took on flesh
Fullness of God in helpless babe
This gift of love and righteousness
Scorned by the ones He came to save
Till on that cross as Jesus died
The wrath of God was satisfied
For every sin on Him was laid
Here in the death of Christ I live

[ verse 3 ]
There in the ground His body lay
Light of the world by darkness slain
Then bursting forth in glorious Day
Up from the grave He rose again

[continuation of hymn from previous page]
And as He stands in victory
Sin's curse has lost its grip on me
For I am His and He is mine
Bought with the precious blood of Christ

[ verse 4 ]
No guilt in life, no fear in death
This is the power of Christ in me
From life's first cry to final breath
Jesus commands my destiny
No power of hell no scheme of man
Can ever pluck me from His hand
Till He returns or calls me home
Here in the power of Christ I'll stand

PRAISE, MY SOUL, THE KING OF HEAVEN

[ verse 1 ]
Praise, my soul, the King of heaven,
To his feet thy tribute bring;
Ransomed, healed, restored, forgiven,
Who like me his praise should sing?
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Praise the everlasting King.

[ verse 2 ]
Praise him for his grace and favour
To our fathers in distress;
Praise him still the same as ever,
Slow to chide, and swift to bless:
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Glorious in his faithfulness.

[ verse 3 ]
Father-like, he tends and spares us,
Well our feeble frame he knows;
In his hands he gently bears us,
Rescues us from all our foes:
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Widely as his mercy flows.

[ verse 4 ]
Angels, help us to adore him;
Ye behold him face to face;
Sun and moon, bow down before him,
Dwellers all in time and space:
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Praise with us the God of grace.
