Four years of steady sailing have brought our Senior crew To where the flags are waving and the harbor lies in view. Just beyond the sparking waters our eager eyes behold The crowded shores that beckon with all their wealth untold. We have sailed our vessel many days, and now we wait to hear The captain bid us anchor, for we know our port is near. Sometimes the seas were stormy, and the tempests wild and long. But we sailed our ship securely, for our hearts were brave and strong. Soon the harbor we shall enter, and our ship shall come to rest. For four long years we set our course—“each day we travelled west.” But the voyage now is ending—every Senior girl and boy Knows a gladness tinged with sorrow: tears are mingled with our joy. For we know the pain of parting, and we pause once more to tell How dear are all our class-mates as we bid our school farewell!
