THE ( U A.lbCEL Alma Mater 0. Gentle Mother, as now we must, loving thee, leave thee. How strong and how close are we held in thy tender embrace! Our hearts overflow when we think, when we know.— that our journey. Shall soon,— in our turn, bear us far from thy beautiful face. Thou hast watched o ' er us in tender and loving compassion. And many the faults by thy care hast thou charmed away. In virtue and wisdom and honor thou hast labored to fashion, And make us in deed and in word to be worthy of thee. In years that shall come.— that we ' ve longed for.— thy kind admonitions Shall guide us. all truly, in peace through the world ' s fiercest storm. One thought of thee and thy ways shall quench strongest temptations And thy gentle might and great soul shall defy every harm. Here would we offer to thee. Gentle Mother, our lives ' true devotion. Long in the heart of our hearts let us hear thy sweet voice. In mountain or valley, on plain or on hill-top. by river or ocean. Wherever we dwell. — may the ways thou hast taught be our choice.
