Representative Text

1 On this sacred day we meet,
And with joy each other greet,
While we ask the Holy One
Light to give as doth the sun;
Light to shine in every heart,
Ne’er from us may it depart;
Light to shine in every heart,
Ne’er from us may it depart.

2 We have come to learn the way
We should live and act each day;
May we have a will to do
What our teachers want us to;
Then, if we shall live in love,
God will bless us from above;
Then, if we shall live in love,
God will bless us from above.

3 May we all good children be;
From our sins, Lord, set us free;
Let our daily conduct show
We intend to always go
In the way our Savior trod,
Leading to the throne of God;
In the way our Savior trod,
Leading to the throne of God.
