We would render thee thanks for the hours of joy We have spent in thy peaceful retreat. A century's sands have not marred thy fair face, It still shines with the glory gf years. Thy young sons are as true as their silver-haired sires That have blessed thee with prayers and with tears. From the pine of the North, from the palmetto green, From the mountain and prairie they came. Here they knelt at thine altars, went forth from thy doors, And have won the bright bay wreaths of fame. Still their forms seem among us, their faces look down From the walls that they labored to rear. We are thine, as were they, and eternally ours Are the memories they held most dear. We shall leave thee, but love thee as fondly thro' life As to-night when we pledge thee in song, To thee we owe aims and ambitions more high And hopes made more fearless and strong.
