School Hymn

1.

O beautiful our country,

Be thine our nobler care;

Than all the wealth of commerce

Thy harvest waving fair,

Be it thy pride to lift up

The manhood of the poor;

Be thou to the oppressed,

Fair freedoms open door

2.

For thee our Fathers suffered

For thee they toiled and prayed;

Upon thy holy altar

Their precious lives they laid

Thou hast no common birthright

Grand memories on thee shine;

The blood of noble races,

Co-mingled flows in thine.

3.

O beautiful our country

Round thee in love we draw;

Thine be the grace of freedom

The majesty of law,

Be righteousness thy sceptre

Justice thy diadem;

Upon thy shining forehead,

Be peace the crowning gem.
