“Let your loins be girded about 
and your burning" - Luke 12:35



1.  IN this Holy Seraph Band 

     Establisheth of Moses

     Peculiar people chosen of God 

     Though hated and mocked of men 

     But Cherub and Seraphim

     Are conscious of serving Holy God. 

Chorus: Oh! The Band of Seraphim 

              Establisheth of Moses 

              Built on love at foundation

              For all the earthly dwellers 

              Everlasting blessing shall we gain.


2.  Praying Father he choseth

     As a worthy lieutenant

     And an able replacement at death 

    Worthy Apostles choseth

    In the misdst of Seraph Band 

    The gospel to proclaim o’er the world.

Chorus: Oh! The Band...


3.  As anointed men of God

    Worthy examples of Christ

    Humbly worship and serve in the fold 

    Like Apostles of the old

    That thou mayest accomplish

    With thine prayers burning as the fire.

Chorus: Oh! The Band...


4.  Anointed female members

     Mary, Martha, Esther Band

     And ye worthy members of our fold 

     Work on and be not weary

    Like virtuous women of old 

    Departing not from the Apostles. 

Chorus: Oh! The Band...


5.  May the grace of Christ Jesus 

     Ever be upon us all

     With us abide till eternity

     Ye members of Sacred Band

     And the twelve Apostles, saints 

    Glory of God reveal o’er the earth.

Chorus: Oh! The Band of Seraphim 

              Establisheth of Moses 

              Built on love at foundation

              For all the earthly dwellers 

              Everlasting blessing shall we gain.  Amen
