O Lord, my God! When I in awesome wonder
Consider all the works thy hands have made
I see the stars, I hear the mighty thunder
Thy power throughout, the universe displayed…
Then sings my soul, my Creator God to Thee
How great Thou art! (2)
When through the woods and forest glades I wander
And hear the birds sing sweetly in the trees
When I look down from lofty mountain grandeur
And hear the brook and feel the gentle breeze…
Then sings my soul, my Creator God to Thee
How great Thou art! (2)
When at L’école I have my friends around me
I feel their love and smiling faces see
All my teachers do an example set me
I feel their light and wisdom guiding me…
Then sings my soul, my Creator God to Thee
How great Thou art! (2)
A CHILD’S PRAYER
Father, we thank Thee for the night
And for the pleasant morning light,
For rest and food and loving care,
And all that makes the world so fair.
Help us to do the things we should,
To be to others kind and good,
In all we do in all we say
To grow more loving every day.
SCHOOL ANTHEM
I’d like to build the world a home
And furnish it with love,
Grow apple trees and honey bees
And snow-white turtle doves.
I’d like to teach the world to sing
In perfect harmony.
I’d like to hold it in my arms
And keep it company.
I’d like to see the world for once
All standing hand in hand
And hear it echo through the streets
For peace throughout the land.
