We, the class of 1957, wish to dedicate our memory book to our parents, whose unselfish love, devotion, and encouragement have made it possible for us to achieve this glory — I live for those who love me, • Whose hearts are kind and true; For the Heaven that smiles above me, And awaits my spirit too; For all human ties that bind me, For the task by God assigned me, For the bright hopes yet to find me, And the good that 1 can do. I live to learn their story Who suffered for my sake; To emulate their glory, And follow in their wake; Bards, patriots, martyrs, sages. The heroic of all ages, Whose deeds crowd History's pages, And Time's great volume make. I live to hold communion With all that is divine, To feel there is a union Twixt Nature's heart and mine; To profit by affliction, Reap truth from fields of fiction, Grow wiser from conviction, And fulfil God's grand design. I live to hail that season By gifted ones foretold, When men shall live by reason, And not alone by gold; When man to man united, And every wrong thing righted, The whole world shall be lighted As Eden was of old. I live for those who love me, For those who know me true, For the Heaven that smiles above me And awaits my spirit too; For the cause that lacks assistance. For the wrong that needs resistance. For the future in the distance. And the good that I can do. 7
