536. By Revelation Called of God

1 By revelation called of God
as Aaron was of old,
your chosen servants in this hour
with prayer we now uphold.

2 According to the gifts of God,
the calling of each one,
endow them with the power of love,
the priesthood of your Son.

3 Then as this priesthood they receive
by laying on of hands,
let us their ministry uphold,
obeying your commands.
