O my soul, praise Him, for He is thy health and salvation! All ye who hear, Now to His temple draw near; Join me in glad adoration! [ Verse 2 ] Praise ye the Lord, Who o’er all things so wondrously reigneth, Shelters thee under His wings, yea, so gently sustaineth! Hast thou not seen How thy desires e’er have been Granted in what He ordaineth? [ Verse 3 ] Praise ye the Lord, Who with marvelous wisdom hath made thee! Decked thee with health, and with loving hand guided and stayed thee; How oft in grief Hath not He brought thee relief. Spreading His wings for to shade thee! [ Verse 4 ] Praise ye the Lord! O let all that is in me adore Him! All that hath life and breath, come now with praises before Him! Let the Amen Sound from His people again: Gladly for aye we adore Him. [ Heading 6a ] GREAT IS THY FAITHFULNESS [ Verse 1 ] “Great is Thy faithfulness,” O God my Father, There is no shadow of turning with Thee; Thou changest not, Thy compassions, they fail not; As Thou hast been Thou forever wilt be. Refrain “Great is Thy faithfulness! Great is Thy faithfulness!” Morning by morning new mercies I see; All I have needed Thy hand hath provided— “Great is Thy faithfulness," Lord, unto me! [ Verse 2 ] Summer and winter, and springtime and harvest. Sun, moon and stars in their courses above. Join with all nature in manifold witness To Thy great faithfulness, mercy and love. [ Verse 3 ] Pardon for sin and a peace that endureth. Thy own dear presence to cheer and to guide; Strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow , Blessings all mine, with ten thousand beside! [ Heading 6b ] A CHARGE TO KEEP I HAVE A charge to keep I have, A God to glorify, A never-dying soul to save, And fit it for the sky. To serve the present age, My calling to fulfill; O may it all my powers engage, To do my Master's will! Arm me with jealous care, As in Thy sight to live, And O Thy servant, Lord, prepare, A strict account to give! Help me to watch and pray And on Thyself rely. And let me ne'er my trust betray. But press to realms on high. [Page Six] [ Heading 7 ] GRADUATION HONOURS [ Heading 7a] Scholarships: The John McNicol Scholarship The E. G.
