The Renaissance of Our Being We love thee. Smith with all our heart! To thee ive ' ll e ' er be true, for you have given us a new meaning, a new direction, a new purpose for our being. Johnson C. Smith University stands not only as an institution of higher education; she stands as a light to young Black men and women to shine bright in their lives, a light that gave us new incentives to become more than what we were. Though the tears have been many, and at times our joys few, we have endured for dear Smith has produced in us the. Renaissance of Our Being. We proudly hail thy name because we came in hopes of being made new, of being reshaped and molded into the Black men and women who will be productive in this world of ours, and Smith has not failed us. She took us in and cared for our minds and bodies. We entered as young children, but we leave as fully developed and matured men and women. Our new development began as we entered for the first lime to register as Smithites. Not knowing anything, we soon found that there was much to learn, but above all, we learned that there was hope for making situations belter. We learned that the Smith family was a family of Love; : one member reaching out to the other forming a human chain, a Smithite by and we can now look back and say: One-fifth of a score of years has rapidly passed i Proudly we hail thy name, our Alma Mater Old S.V. Johnson C. Smith, our own! Our hope our guiding star, our light unfailing! Pride of our loyal hearts we ' ll love and honor thee our whole life through. On ever on! dear old For you are the Renaissance of Our Being
