O Light of light! within us dwell, Through us Thy radiance pour, That word and life Thy truths may tell, And praise Thee evermore. Amen. Tune Title: FOREST GREEN

And fold the hands and acquiesce— O shame! Stand up, speak out, and bravely, in God’s Name. 3 Be strong! It matters not how deep intrenched the wrong, How hard the battle goes, the day, how long; Faint not, fight on! Tomorrow comes the song. Amen. Tune Title: SONG 24
