CROSSROADS -. HOLY CROSS REGIONAL SCHOOL LYNCHBURG, VIRGINIA Title Page 1 I have waited, waited for the LORD, and he stooped toward me and heard my cry. He drew me out of the pit of destruction, out of the mud of the swamp; He set my feet upon the crag; he made firm my steps. And he put a new song into my mouth, a hymn to our God. Let us sing, sing a new song.

NEVER SAY GOOD-BYE 1 ill Senior Candids 99 The future, yet undiscovered, always hopeful, is the sky of the new-founded dream. We wish for the stars, settle for the moon, but all are content to dream. We think of scenes of paradise and happiness; always reaching for the treasure chest, that holds inside the key, of happiness. The dreams of rainbows and blue sky, always asking where, but never why. It is something to be achieved, not contemplated, for if we ever reach that place we will be elevated to the Olympus of our dreams. Nectar and Honey Songbirds and Placid Streams.
