Memoirs of Christ Nagar XI

Hi all,

Deepu, thanx for interpreting what I meant correctly. In Std 6,
you were in E division. Riaz, nice for sending additions to the list
of classmates, some of which are not there in our list like Cecil
Yesudas (Ashams, please add).

In this session, for a change, let us remember our school song. It
used to be sung many days through the mike at 9:30 am(after the
morning prayer).

Blessed art thou, dear, Christ Nagar,
That bears the Lord, our Master's name,
Around thy flag let Angels fly,
And fill our hearts with virtues lore.

Beneath Thy noble roof we meet,
And gather fruits of wisdom pure,
We like a band of brothers' move,
In faith, in hope, in charity.

May life eternal surge in us,
And lead us fast in love of God,
Show us the way in darkness sure,
O, lead us in grace to truth Divine.

And here we make a solemn pledge,
Forever thy worthy sons to be.

In the next session, to start with Std 7,

Yours sincerely,
Sundar Singh
