VENI CREATOR SPIRITUS Veni, Creator Spiritus, 2. Da gaudiorum praemia, Mentes tuorum visita, Da gratiorum munera, Imple superna gratia Dissolve litis vincula, Quae tu creasti, pectora. Adstringe pacis foedera. 3. Sit laus Patri cum Filio, Sancto simul Paraclito, Nobisque mittat Filius, Charisma Sancti Spiritus. Amen. LORD OF ALL BEING, TI-IRONED AFAR Lord of all being; throned afar, 3. Our midnight is Thy smile withdrawn; Thy glory flames from sun and star, Our noontide is Thy gracious dawn; Centre and soul of every sphere, Our rainbow arch, Thy mercy's sign; Yet to each loving heart how near! All, save the clouds of sin, are Thine. Sun of our life, Thy quickening ray 4. Lord of all life, below, above, Sheds on our path the glow of day; Whose light is truth, Whose warmth is love, Star of our hope, Thy softened light Before thy ever-blazing throne Cheers the long watches of the night. We ask no lustre of our own. 5. Grant us Thy truth to make us free, And kindling hearts that burn for Thee, Till all Thy living altars claim One holy light, one heavenly flame. AMERICA 1. My country, 'tis of thee, 3. Let music swell the breeze, Sweet land of liberty, And ring from all the trees Of thee I sing: Sweet freedom's song: Land where my fathers died, Let mortal tongues awake; Land of the pilgrims' pride, Let all that breathe partake; From every mountain side Let rocks their silence break, Let freedom ring. The sound prolong. 2. My native country, thee, 4. Our fathers' God, to Thee, Land of the noble free, Author of liberty, Thy name I love: To Thee we sing: I love thy rocks and rills, Long may our land be bright Thy woods and templed hills; With freedom's holy light My heart with rapture thrills, Protect us by Thy might, Like that above. Great God, our King. CANDIDATES FOR DEGREES DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY CHRISTINA VoN HuLPHERSHAUSEN ABDELLA. A.B. (University DoNALD HERBERT CoPLIN. B.S.
