Farewell, Dear Alma Mater (Tune: "Devoted to You" )

Farewell dear Alma Mater 
Goodbye each  friend and teacher ,
Time has come for us to part ,
So sadly, we go .

We all fondly remember 
And will treasure forever
Those sweet moments of splendor
Together with you.

(Ref.) The lessons and values we have learned
           Will linger in our mind
           The righteousness in our souls enshrined 
           Our whole life, steadfastly, it will bind .

Tomorrow is a strange world 
 With pains and trials untold 
Yet our dreams we shall uphold
And cling to the Lord .

So Long , Farewell !

We'll miss the days we spent here ,
The memories we hold dear;
But now, we're leaving , 
We bid farewell.

The friendship that we have cared ,
The bonding that we have shared
Are precious tokens ,
We'll take with us.

(Ref.) Wherever we'll tread,
          We'll treasure like gold 
          And always uphold 
          Values we learned ...

Though hard maybe our journey,
We'll cling to the Almighty, 
And face the new day,
With dignity.

Farewell beloved teachers,
Goodbye our Alma Mater
So long, our old friends 
Close to our hearts.

( Repeat Refrain ) // .

Note:  A graduation song : Tune ":Let It Be Me ".
