Book of books, our people???s strength Statesman???s, teacher???s, hero???s treasure, Bringing freedom, spreading truth, Shedding light that none can measure; Wisdom comes to those who know thee, All the best we have we owe thee. Thank we those who toiled in thought, Many diverse scrolls completing; Poets, prophets, scholars, saints, Each his word from God repeating; Till they came, who told the story Of the Word, and showed His glory. Praise we God, Who hath inspired Those whose wisdom still directs us; Praise Him for the Word made flesh, For the Spirit which protects us. Light of Knowledge, ever burning, Shed on us Thy deathless learning.
