Words to "Holladay, Dear Holladay"

O Holladay, dear Holladay,
Thou molder of young life,
Give each of us a courage strong
To face the coming strife.
O Holladay, we look to you
To help us meet our task,
So carefully our lives to guide,
Prepare us well, we ask!

O Holladay, please give to us
A love for fellowman.
Help us to see each other's rights,
To serve in ways we can.
O Holladay, teach us to love
Each other as we share,
And give to us warm hearts, we ask.
Help us to really care!

O grant to us, dear Holladay,
A love for country, too.
May we be proud of our dear land,
And our red, white, and blue!
O Holladay, guide us, we plead,
To love our land sincere,
Our heritage, our freedom,
Our nation to hold dear!

 

Eloise Welch

June, 1970
