Tune: Morning Hymn
('Awake my soul, and with the sun')
1 Peter 5 v.5-7
*********
Be subject to one another
To each Christian sister, brother
And be clothed with humility
Treating each other graciously
For God, He does resist the proud
Turns from the haughty, boastful, loud
And gives grace unto the humble
They do lovingly hear His call
Humble yourselves therefore under
The mighty hand of God for sure
That He may exalt you in due
Time which be suitable for you
Casting all you care on Him, for
He cares for you with concern pure
Trust to Him, live humble and meek
Daily His ways and will to seek

Reminds me of the prayer of St Francis both use the theme of humility to ask our Lord for his help and guidance. Another lovely hymn very enjoyable
