We’re banded together
in Christian Endeavour,
To live for the Master
and serve Him for ever;
To follow His standard,
His counsel obeying;
To care for the poor,
and to seek for the straying.
“For Christ
and the Church”
we are banded together;
“For Christ
and the Church”
is our watchword,
our watchword for ever.
In Jesus our Saviour,
believing, abiding,
Our all to His goodness
and mercy confiding;
We’ll scatter bright sunshine
o’er paths that are dreary,
And tell of His love
to the hearts that are weary.
“For Christ
and the Church”
we are banded together;
“For Christ
and the Church”
is our watchword,
our watchword for ever.
Thus banded together
in Christian Endeavour,
The bonds that unite us
the world cannot sever;
Upheld by the Master,
and kindly defended,
We’ll work for His cause
till life’s mission is ended.
“For Christ
and the Church”
we are banded together;
“For Christ
and the Church”
is our watchword,
our watchword for ever.
