Through Ufo with Its seasons of pleasure and pain. Bo thoy spent In the cottage or hall. There aro none that are fraught with such comfort and Joy As tho hours that our school days recall. All hall! Alma Mator, thou guldo of our youth. Who hast molded our spirits to thine; We cherltth thco now as thou cherished us then, And Invoke on theo blessings divine. Join hands, once again. In Fraternity's bond. Everlasting that kinship shall be. First, we pledgo to tho weal of thi land that wo love, May sho never lack hearts brave and freo. Then, here's to fair Knowledge, bright symDol of power. And may never foul Ignoranco rulo; May. the God of our fathers forever protect Ourselves and tho Ogden High school. |
