“In the steep common path of our calling
Be it bright or dark for us to follow,
Thine own perfect guidance be upon us,
Be Thou a shield to us in each secret thought our minds get to weave
Be Thou Thyself on our helm and at our sheet.
Thou dogs and thieves would reive us from the fold,
Be Thou the valiant shepherd of glory near us.”
An ancient Celtic prayer, translated by Alexander Carmichael, forms the basis for this anthem. Scored for SATB chorus and organ
