Lesson 5

BB VESPER
The BB Vesper is a prayer that we sing at the end of a BB parade, gathering or function

Every BB Officer and member is expected to know how to sing it.

GREAT God, Who knowest all our need,

Bless Thou our watch, and guard our sleep;

Forgive our sins of thought and deed,

And in Thy peace Thy servants keep.

We Thank Thee for the day that’s done

We trust Thee for the days to be;

Thy love we learn in Christ Thy Son,

O may we all His glory see! Amen

ANCHOR SONG

The Anchor Song promotes the “BB Spirit” and some Company sang it during the
opening parade and on the first parade of every month during company fall-in.

There’s an emblem fair that is known to all

A sign to help us through
It stands for strength and it stands for right
An Anchor tried and true.

The Emblem of The Boys’ Brigade

It helps us on our way,
Our father’s knew in days gone by
This sign we know today
Sure and Stedfast
The Brigade Boys’ motto clear

That’s our watchword when trouble and trials are near

Sure and Stedfast
to the flag that flies above
In all that we do
We’ll try to be true
To the anchor that we love.

TABLE GRACE

BB has a unique way of saying grace before every meal; thanking God for the food
He has provided. Hence, Table Grace is sung before we eat our meal and everyone
stands at attention.

Be present at our table, Lord;

Be here and everywhere adored;

Thy creatures bless, and grant that we

May feast in fellowship with Thee. Amen.
