We invite you and your church/group/family to participate in a 40-day prayer initiative for Sri Lanka. Recent events in the country have shown us that SL is desperately in need of peace, stability and God fearing leadership. As concerned expatriates could we commit to praying for SL in the next 40 days.
Please like us on Facebook and post your prayer event(s) as you organize it with any comments and words of encouragement to the wider expatriate family.

Hymn for Ceylon

Jehovah, Thou hast promised
The isles shall wait for Thee,
The joyous isles of ocean,
The jewels of the sea.
Lo! we, this island’s watchmen
Would give and take no rest;
For thus hast Thou commanded –
Till our dear land is blessed. //

Then bless her mighty Father,
With blessings needed most,
In every verdant village,
By every palmy coast.
On every soaring mountain,
O’er every spreading plain,
May all her sons and daughters –
Thy righteousness attain. //

Give peace within her borders
Twixt man and man goodwill,
The love all unsuspicious,
The love that works no ill.
In loyal lowly service,
Let each from other learn,
The guardian and the guarded, –
Till Christ Himself return. //

To Him our land shall listen,
To Him our peoples kneel;
All rule be on His shoulder,
All wrong beneath His heel;
O consummation glorious
Which now by faith we sing;
Come, cast we up the highway –
That brings us back our King! //
