1 Jesus, our Captain, Hope of our salvation,
Help Thou Thy people in their lowly station;
Come to our rescue when our foes assail us,
Lest courage fail us.

2 Take Thou the lead, all fear in us assuaging;
Conquer Thou Satan who again is raging;
Let us, Thy members, now by storms o'ertaken,
Not be forsaken.

3 Grant that in peace both church and school may flourish.
Let peace and plenty soul and body nourish.
Give to each conscience, sorely bruised and riven,
Sweet peace from heaven.

4 Crown with Thy goodness all who here adore Thee;
All who with praises daily come before Thee:
Though by grave perils they on earth be haunted,
Keep them undaunted.

Amen.
