CLASS HYMN

[Lyrics]
May the mind of Christ, my Saviour, Live in me from day to day, 
By His love and pow’r controlling All I do and say.

May the Word of God dwell richly in my heart from hour to hour, 
So that all may see I triumph Only through His pow’r.

May the peace of God, my Father, Rule my life in everything,
That I may be calm to comfort Sick and sorrowing.

May the love of Jesus fill me, As the waters fill the sea;
Him exalting, self abasing, This is victory.

May I run the race before me, Strong and brave to face the foe, 
Looking only unto Jesus As I onward go.

May His beauty rest upon me As I seek the lost to win,
And may they forget the channel, Seeing only Him.

THE COLLEGE HYMN

[Lyrics] 
1. Jesus our Lord, our Light and our Salvation, 
Inspire our lips to sing Thy worthy fame, 
Spreading abroad to every tribe and nation, 
The saving knowledge of Thy glorious Name.

2. Help us O Lord, to keep our pledge unbroken,
Guard Thou our ways, our thoughts, our tongues, our hearts; 
Help us to trust the Word which Thou hast spoken, 
That from Thy paths, our feet may ne’er depart.

3. Here in these halls of learning and devotion 
Let mind and heart be taught Thy holy will; 
Then lead us forth, amid this world’s commotion, 
Our high and sacred calling to fulfil.

4. Help us O Lord! Our strength is only weakness: 
Thine, Thine the power by which alone we live; 
Help us each day to bear the cross with meekness, 
Till Thou at last the promised crown shalt give.

CROWN HIM WITH MANY CROWNS
[ Verse 1 ]
Crown Him with many crowns, the Lamb upon His Throne;
Hark, how the heavenly anthem drowns All music but its own! 
Awake, my soul, and sing Of Him Who died for thee,
And hail Him as thy matchless King Through all eternity.
[ Verse 2 ]
Crown Him the Son of God Before the worlds began,
And ye, who tread where He hath trod, Crown Him the Son of Man; 
Who every grief hath known That wrings the human breast,
And takes and bears them for His own That all in Him may rest.
[ Verse 3 ]
Crown Him the Lord of life, Who triumphed o’er the grave,
And rose victorious in the strife For those He came to save;
His glories now we sing Who died, and rose on high,
Who died, eternal life to bring, And lives that death may die.
[ Verse 4 ]
Crown Him the Lord of love! Behold His hands and side,
Rich wounds, yet visible above, In beauty glorified:
All hail, Redeemer, hail! For Thou hast died for me:
Thy praise shall never, never fail Throughout eternity.

[Heading 6a ]
MAJESTIC SWEETNESS SITS ENTHRONED

[ Verse 1 ]
Majestic sweetness sits enthroned Upon the Saviour’s brow;
His head with radiant glories crowned, His lips with grace o’erflow, 
His lips with grace o’erflow.
[ Verse 2 ]
No mortal can with Him compare, Among the sons of men;
Fairer is He than all the fair That fill the heavenly train,
That fill the heavenly train.
[ Verse 3 ]
He saw me plunged in deep distress, He flew to my relief;
For me He bore the shameful cross And carried all my grief,
And carried all my grief.
[ Verse 4 ]
To Him I owe my life and breath, And all the joys I have;
He makes me triumph over death, And saves me from the grave, 
And saves me from the grave.
[ Verse 5 ]
Since from His bounty I receive Such proofs of love divine,
Had I a thousand hearts to give, Lord, they should all be Thine, 
Lord, they should all be Thine.

[ Heading 6b ]
REJOICE, THE LORD IS KING

[ Verse 1 ]
Rejoice, the Lord is King: Your Lord and King adore!
Rejoice, give thanks, and sing, And triumph evermore:
Lift up your heart, lift up your voice! Rejoice, again I say, rejoice!
[ Verse 2 ]
Jesus, the Saviour, reigns, The God of truth and love;
When He had purged our stains, He took His seat above:
Lift up your heart, lift up your voice! Rejoice, again I say, rejoice!
[ Verse 3 ]
His Kingdom cannot fail, He rules o’er earth and heav’n:
The keys of death and hell Are to our Jesus giv’n:
Lift up your heart, lift up your voice! Rejoice, again I say, rejoice!
[ Verse 4 ]
Rejoice, in glorious hope! Our Lord the Judge shall come, 
And take His servants up To their eternal home.
Lift up your heart, lift up your voice! Rejoice, again I say, rejoice!
