COUNCILL TRAINING SCHOOL REUNION HYMN

Tune: “America the Beautiful”
Lyrics: Dorothy Langford Turner

We come in gratitude today, with a hymn of love we raise
Of memories which still abide, of school, our source of praise.

You lifted us toward noble goals; you put us to the tests
You taught us well to ne’er give up to always do our best.

Our trophy room was full of proof, of victory in every strife
In competition of all kinds, broke records set for life.

Where pretty girls and handsome guys, all learned to flirt and date
Relationships turned into love, we found a lifetime mate.

Our praise to God for blessings which he gave with loving care
For parents who supported us, and friends beyond compare.

Thy walls may tumble down and fall, the building may decay
You’ll live forever in our hearts, until our dying day.

REFRAIN (After each stanza)

O Councill Training School which sent
Us safely on our way,
We’ll ne’er regret, we’ll ne’er forget,
Our tribute to you pay.
