Jiitilee OJe f Out of the heart of this gladsome year, Out of its sunshine, soft and clear, Cometh a sweet, melodious sound, Gathering strength on its onward hound— Gathering bloom on its fragrant wing. As the Jubilee chimes in the belfry swing; And the years come back from their silent urns, Like the joyous waves when the tide returns, To break once more on the shores of time. With a rapturous lay and a song sublime. List to the bells front their airy towers. Scattering joy like Springtime flowers, Token and memories of the day In the silver twilight far away. ’Tis the Master’s plaudit from Heaven’s high spheres, Blessing and crowning these seventy-five years, And our hearts go out on the waves of song, In the might of their joy as they sweep along, Telling the land and telling the sea ’Tis the hour of a glorious jubilee. St. Alphonsus! the gratef ul thousands attest. Who arise today to proclaim thee blest— Blest in the flock to your keeping given, Blest in the souls that were trained for heaven; Blest, thrice blest—in the great Well Done” That seems from the azure sky to come. The future largely of promise tells, When the bloom will wave in the ripened dells; When the harvest shall yield thee a hundred fold And the future years shall be crowned with Gold.
