SCHOOL ANTHEM

With tender love we come to thee, Dear guide and friend, Saint Joseph; With heart and voices joyously, Our words of praise we sing, Chorus: Saint Joseph, dear, when life is dark, When waves of sin and sorrow rise, Guide thou our frail and trembling bark, Safe to the port beyond the skies.
