Sweet Girl Greudate.

Sweet Girl Greudate.
 Sweet girl graduate,
 So happy, so jolly, so gay!
 Did ever life seem brighter,
 Than on this Commencement day? 1 Commencement-w what does it mean? It means you are just beginning to
 live;
 It means you are prepared to fight
 lifS's battles.
 And to set the best Life has to
 give.
 There's right and wrong way to
 begin, dear,
 And on this day fail not to take the right; Let God, the Beginning and End,
 guide you,
 And pray that He will forever keep
 you in sight.
 Thus will you ever climb upward To the ladders topmost round of
 fame,
 For with purpose, so lofty and
 holy
 You can never know failure or
 shame.
 May this be truly a Commencement Of unknown joys, the brightest and
 best,
 And when this life is ended,
 What then? Eternal rest.
