RECESSIONAL

�Junior Colleqe Son9
Bucknell Junior College,
We pledge our hearts to Thee;
Honor, faith and courage,
Truth and loyalty.
As we leave Thy guiding spirit
To prove our way as men,
We'll take Thy mem'ry with us,
To help us to the end.
Thou hast led us onward
In search of finer heights.
May we leave no mem'ry
To mar Thy spirit bright.
May our deeds and deep devotion
To one we love so well,
Stay with Thee for others.
Oh Bucknell, dear Bucknell.

Under the shadow of Thy Throne
Thy saints have dwelt secure;

Sufficient is Thine arm alone,
And our defense is sure.
Before the hills in order stood,
Or earth received her frame,

From everlasting Thou art God,
To endless years the same.

A thousand ages in Thy sisht
Are like an evening gone;
Short as the watch that ends the night
Before the rising sun.
Time,like an ever-rolling stream,
Bears all its sons away;
They fly, forgotten, as a dream
Dies at the opening day.

AGES PAST

O God, our help in ages past,
Our hope for years to come,

Our shelter from the stormy blast
And our eternal home.
Under the shadow of Thy throne
Thy saints have dwelt secure;
Sufficient is Thine arm alone,
And our defense is sure.

Before the hills in order stood,
Or earth received her fame,
From everlasting Thou art God,
To endless years the same.

A thousand ages in Thy sight
Are like an evening gone;
Short as the watch that ends the night
Before the rising sun.
Time, like an ever-rolling stream.
Bears all its sons away;
They fly, forgotten. as a dream
Dies at the opening day.
O God, our help in ages past,
Our hope for years to come,

Be Thou our Guide while life shall last,
And our eternal home.

Leads forth in beauty allthe starry band
Of shining worlds in splendor thro'the skies,
Our gratefulsongs before Thy throne arise.

Thy love divine hath lead us in the past;
ln this free land by Thee our lot is cast;
Be Thou our Ruler, Guardian, Guide and Stay,
Thy Word our law, Thy paths our chosen way.
From war's alarms, {rom deadly pestilence,
Be Thy strong arm our ever sure defence;

Thy true religion in our hearts increase,
Thy bounteous goodness nourish us in peace.
Refresh Thy peo_ple on their toilsome way;

Lead us'Irom night to never-ending day;
Fill allour lives with love and grace divine,
And glory,laud and praise be eve, Thine.

JOYFUL, JOYFUL, WE ADORE THEE
Joyful, joyful, we adore Thee,
God of glory, God of love;
Hearts unfold like flowers before Thee,
Opening to the sun above.
Milt the clouds of sin and sadness,
Drive the dark of doubt away;
Giver of immortal gladness,
Fill us with the light of day.

All Thy works with joy surround Thee,
Earth and heaven refleet'fhy rays,
Stars and angels sing arbund Thee,
Center of unbroken praise.
Field and forest, vale and mountain,
Flowery meadow, flashing sea,
Chanting bird and flowing fountain,
Call us to rejoice in Thee.
Mortals,

join the huppy

chorus

Which the morning stars began;
Father love is reigning o'er us,
Brother love binds man to man.
Ever singing, march we onward,
Victors in the midst of strife,
Joyful music leads us Sunward
In the triumph song of life.

Chanting bird;and flowing fountain,
Call us to rejoice in Thee.

Which the mornine;drs besan:
Fath_er love is reign"ing o'er is,
Brother love binds man to man.
Ever singingr march we onward,
Victors in thg midst of strife,
Joyful music leads us Sunward
In the triumph song of life.

FOR THE BEAUTY OF THE EARTH
For the beauty of the earth;
For the glory of the skies.;
For the love which from our birth
Over and around us lies:
Lord of all, to Thee we raise
This our hymn of grateful praise.

For the wonder ofeach hour
Of the day and of the night,
Hill and vale and tree and flower,
Sun and moon, and stars of light:
Lord of all, to Thee we raise
This our hymn of grateful praise.

For the joy of human love,
Brother, sister, parent, child,
Friends on earth, and friends above;
For all gentle thoughts and mild:
Lord of all to Thee we raise
This our hymn of grateful praise.
