My school is composed of people like me.
I help make it what it is.
It will be friendly, if I am.
It will be holy, if I am.
Its seats will be filled if I help fill them.
It will do great work, if I work.
It will be prayerful, if I pray.
It will make generous gifts to many causes,
if I am a generous giver.
It will bring others into serious study,
if I invite and bring them.
It will be a school of loyalty and love,
of fearlessness and faith,
of compassion, charity and mercy,
if I, who make it what it is,
am filled with these same things.
Therefore, with the help of God,
I now dedicate myself
to the task of being all things
that I want my school to be.
AMEN!
