College Prayer
The College Hymn
O God, our help in ages past,
Our hope for years to come
Our shelter from the stormy blast
And our eternal home.
Under the shadow of Thy throne,
Still may we dwell secure,
Sufficient is Thine arm alone
And our defence is sure.
Before the hills in order stood,
Or earth received her frame,
From everlasting Thou art God To endless years the same.
O God, our help in ages past,
Our hope for years to come
Be thou our guard while life shall last
And our eternalhome.
(The song significant for its absolute faith in God and future was sung by King David more than thousand years agoand it was given hymn form by Dr.Issac Watis in 1719)
Our Founder’s Favourite prayer:

– Amen.

may grow stronger with the years.
Be Thou our Teacher and Guide, for if Thou dost teach
us we cannot learn amiss and if dost Thou guide us we
cannot go astray. May we ever remember that it is in
