Tune: Ravenshaw
(\'Lord, thy word abideth\')
Adapted from a prayer \'Singing to the Father\'
by St Ignatius of Antioch, 35-108AD.
********
And you have all been formed
Into one choir, and warmed
By the Spirit to sing
God\'s song, praises Him bring
So that you Father praise
With one voice, worship raise
Through Jesus Christ, that when
He hears you, He may then
May realise from what
You have done, thankful lot
Is yours, so singing well
God His people can tell*
