RISE UP, O PEOPLE OF GOD
1. Rise up, O People of god!
Have done with less-er things;
Give heart and mind and soul and strength
To serve the King of Kings.
2. Rise up, O People of God!
His Kingdom tarries long
Bring in the day of Brotherhood
And end the night of wrong.
3. Rise up, O People of God!
The church for you doth wait,
Her strength un-e-qual to her task;
Rise up, and make Her great.
4. Lift high the cross of Christ!
Tread where His feet have trod;
As brothers of the Son of man,
Rise up, O People of God.

SISTERHOOD AND BROTHERHOOD PLEDGE
Written by Bernyce H. Clausell
Relying and depending on the help of God,
I hereby promise:
To be a SISTER or BROTHER to every other SISTER or BROTHER in CHRIST
To do what I can to lift their wearisome load,
To give a song in the night,
And try to make their pathway bright;
To seek for spiritual guidance each day
As I struggle to lead Christ's way.
I hereby pledge:
To help carry someone's heavy cross,
To aid them in bearing their loss.
In prosperity, share their gladness,
In adversity, share their sadness;
Tell them of Christ, the Heavenly Dove,
As I reach out to my sisters and brothers in LOVE.

Chairman
