St. Andrew’s Scout Prayer

O God of our creation,
As every morning brings a noble chance,
And every chance a noble knight,
Bestow us with Thy grace that we be always prepared in life
So as to fight the good fight of faith;
Inspire us by Thy Holy Spirit to do our duty like true Scouts,
To help other people at all times,
To stand up for what is right,
To think wisely, to speak truly, to resolve bravely,
To act kindly, and to live purely.
Bless us in body and soul and make us a blessing to our friends.
Let the assurance of Thy presence assist us to uphold and
Maintain the ideals and spirit of the Founder of our Movement.
O Lord our God, accept this prayer for Jesus Christ’s sake. Amen.

Scout Hymn

Now as I start upon my chosen way
In all I do, my thoughts, my work, my play
Grant as I promise, courage new for me
To be the best, the best that I can be.

Help me to keep my honour shining bright
May I be loyal in the hardest fight
Let me be able for my task and then
To earn a place among my fellow men

Open my eyes to see things as I should
That I may do my daily turn of good
Let me be ready waiting for each need
To keep me clean, in thought, and word and deed

So as I journey on my chosen way
In all I do, my thoughts, my work, my play
Grant as I promise, courage new for me
To be the best, the best that I can be.
