Hail! beacon light of Ishpeming, Hail, High School 'tis of thee we sing. 'Neath heav'n's high dome of azure blue, Thou art thyself as tirni and true, Surrounded by the hills so old, VVhose iron hearts are strong and bold. To thee our people turn with pride, In thee their love and hope abide: Thy sons and daughters do thee bless, Thy teachings mould a life's success. Then let us haste, and garlands rare lVreathe 'round our High School ever fair. Superior's mighty deeps are blue, And northern skies are that fair hue, Our color this-it tells of might, Of love of truth and love of right. Long life and health and happy l1Ol1l'S, God frrant thee, Alma Mater ours. 5 Pa-ge Eight
