Table of Contents

This is the life! New joys come with each morning;

Old hopes revive with each new day returning;

Vigor increased, inspiring fresh ambition

To live and serve our day and generation.

This is the life! Forgetting all the worry

Of strenuous days, the bustle and the hurry,

Renew again our love of simple pleasure

Dame Nature's hand bestows with generous measure.

And, when this life is merged in life eternal,

When earthly joys give place to joys supernal,

May all dear friends along the old Red River

Be with us there, forever and forever.
