A SCHOOL HYMN FOR JAMAICA COLLEGE
Tune: Dismissal

God of Heaven, be our Father,
Bless this school we humbly pray;
When before thy throne we gather
At thy feet our hearts we lay;
Be thou near us
In our work and in our play.

For this college, Lord, we thank thee
And for brethren gone before,
Praise thee for thy tender mercies,
Serve and love thee more and more;
For our Founders
Lord, thy name we do adore.

Guard our heritage we pray thee
And the ideals we uphold;
All who here have served and praised thee,
Father keep within thy fold;
Make thy servants
Ever faithful, true and bold.

Thus we pray thee, be thou gracious,
Teach our hearts to do thy will;
And when wider service calls us,
When our places others fill,
Then, O Father,
Bless Jamaica College still.
