A great man of God and man of prayer
With a building of virtues like layers
Son of a God- fearer, found an association
For women, a Religious Congregation.
Trusting in God and under His protection
Looked for the Bethany Congregation
To realize his dream of girls’ education
And to offer new life to those in desolation.
He sails his ship on high speed of wind
Ardently to fulfill poor peoples’ need
Greatly desired to see a smile on their face
Reached out to empower the downcast with grace.
Accomplishing his mission faithfully
Entrusts to Bethany to carry it forward devotedly
He passed away on 23 December 1960
But remains in our heart for all eternity.
