 The Class Tree
by Emma S. Thomas
(tune: America)
Grow thou and flourish well
Ever the story tell,
Of this glad day;
Long may thy branches raise
To heaven our grateful praise
Waft them on sunlight rays
To God away.
Deep in the earth today,
Safely thy roots we lay,
Tree of our love;
Grow thou and flourish long;
Ever our grateful song
Shall its glad notes prolong
To God above.
"Let music swell the breeze,
And ring from all the trees,"
On this glad day:
Bless Thou each student band
O'er all our happy land;
Teach them Thy love's command.
Great God, we pray. |
