Lyrics:
Bright be our pathway 'till we meet again
Life hath its pleasures, its toil and its pain,
Lightly may shadows our sky's brightness veil,
Clear be the sunshine in which our barks' sail,
Secure be the haven in which we find rest,
And rich be the harvest with which we are blest.
We'll tread the path that duty marks,
Whatever may betide,
And only this our hearts regret,
That here our paths divide,
Yet hope is bright and ne'er will fail,
We'll sing its strains 'till when
The happy morn with smiles shall dawn
On which we meet again.
Tho' far we roam thro' distant climes
And other friendships find,
The friends of yore wil ne'er give o'er
But always keep in mind
The busy throng and life's demand,
May claim our daily thought,
But hours of rest will be
With hallowed mem'ries fraught.
Let song this hour our tongues employ
And lofty strains ring out,
Our joy for song will soothe an aching heart
And bless the hour we part,
Then joy's glad hour our hearts shall fill
While mem'ries boon is with us still
And ne'er a day shall close in night
Without one ray of light.
May truest joys be thine,
Choicest blessing be thy share,
Pure love thy heart entwine,
Heav'n make thy lot its share,
Then hope brightest hope
Our path thro' life attend,
Joy sweetest joy
Await our journey's end.
Roses unfading
Bloom for our crown above,
There, there at least
We'll meet again in love.
Ah …
We'll tread the path that duty marks,
Whatever may betide,
And only this our hearts regret
That here our paths divide,
Yet hope is bright and ne'er will fail,
We'll sing its strains 'till when
The happy morn with smiles shall dawn
On which we meet again.
Yes bright be our pathway,
'Till we meet, we meet again.
