We thank Thee, now, Father,
Whose loving gracious hand,
Hath given us our playing fields
And school in this bright land:
Whose finger paints the flowers and trees
And tints the clouds above,
Whose mercy keeps our Clarence School
And makes it worth our love.

Chorus: We thank Thee, O Father,
For these and all Thy care,
Bestowed upon Thy children,
Both here and everywhere.

For our teachers we would thank Thee,
O fill them daily, Lord.
With deep and true devotion,
To them Thy grace afford,
Bless all the hours of childhood,
The sunshine and the prayer,
The work and high endeavour
In which we now have share.

For our founders, we would thank Thee,
Their loving gracious plan,
Their many deeds of kindness
Since first our school began:
O grant that we may ever
Promote the work begun,
Show forth by lives of splendour
The glories of Thy Son.

O grant that now and ever,
No act of ours may cast,
A slur on School or Country
With all their glorious past,
Today and through the ages
Thy Faith shall be our shield,
Thy Hope shall live forever,
Thy Love shall win the field.
