14 Commencement Record Our Graduating Class ' Twas many a year ago, boys, We came to our Girard; The crowding years have hurried past. But we ' ve come through unscarred. It’s time to balance accounts, boys. And reckon our Worth today. To lay our course for the goal ahead. To pause, and perhaps to pray. Have you seen a clear blue lake. When the flood-gates are unbarred, Rush into the arms of the Wanton sea? It is so with our Girard. The wide, wide sea of life, boys. Will not raise its careless tide. And the waves will surge against the shore Unmindful in their pride. Yet if our lives are sweet and clean. Our courage high and holy. If We have trust in Cod’s intent, And spirits chaste and lowly. The tides of life that seem so strong Will yield to our desires; The winds that blow so cold will warm To faith’s consuming fires. If we are worthy, if We are true, ’Cainst sin and shame on guard. Friendship and love will follow us As in our dear Girard. The honors we have Won, boys. The disappointments hard. Let’s scrap them all and give one cheer For the honor of Girard. —C. Addison Willis.
