Faithful Women, Christian Sisters

1. Sarah and Esther, Mary, Ruth, and others​—

All these were capable women, loyal wives.

Godly devotion was foremost in their lives.

They were faithful women, ones we know by name.

There were others favored by Jehovah,

Nameless in the record, their faith was just the same.

2. Loyalty, courage, goodness, loving-kindness,

Lovable qualities in all humankind,

Virtues these excellent women bring to mind.

They were fine examples all can imitate.

Christian sisters, walking in their footsteps,

Worthy is your service and happy your estate.

3. Mothers and daughters, sisters, wives, and widows,

Willingly laboring, glad to do your part.

Modest your bearing, submissive is your heart,

Having God’s approval, may you never fear.

Christian sisters, may Jehovah keep you

Firm in your conviction, your prize is drawing near.
