School Song
Visitation, we thy daughters call to thee. Proudly do we claim thee as our own. Loving mother, hear our voices as we prayerfully proclaim the shining ways our youth has known. Here then we beseech thee, grant we may not fail thee, may we hold thy vision 'ere in view. Seeing, learning, loving, living, holding thee so dear. Our Visitation as thy daughters true.

Famous quotes containing the words school and/or song:
“I’m not making light of prayers here, but of so-called school prayer, which bears as much resemblance to real spiritual experience as that freeze-dried astronaut food bears to a nice standing rib roast. From what I remember of praying in school, it was almost an insult to God, a rote exercise in moving your mouth while daydreaming or checking out the cutest boy in the seventh grade that was a far, far cry from soul-searching.”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
“Arise, my love, my fair one, and come away; for now the winter is past, the rain is over and gone. The flowers appear on the earth; the time of singing has come, and the voice of the turtledove is heard in our land. The fig tree puts forth its figs, and the vines are in blossom; they give forth fragrance. Arise, my love, my fair one, and come away.”
—Bible: Hebrew, Song of Solomon 2:10-13.
