Come oh Lord and sit with us.

All Grace Lyrics

Phi U Forever
(Tune: Edelweiss)

Phi Upsilon Omicron, your light shines brightly before us.
Guides our way, through the day, inspiration and pleasure.
Scholarship, leadership, service too,
Are our goals together.
Phi Upsilon Omicron, lives in our hearts forever.

DELTA LOVE
(Tune: Edelweiss)

Delta love, Delta love
Ties that bind us forever,
Friendships true,
love for you,
Ties that time cannot sever.
 
Caring friendship we pledge to you,
Sharing dreams together
God above, bless our love,
Bless our sisters forever.
 
Delta love, Delta love,
I feel your presence about me,
Growing more, through life's doors,
Sisters comfort and guide me.
 
Memories dance in my thoughts so gay,
Sweet times, sad times, together
Delta love, Delta love,
Keep our hearts close forever.

Song Stewardship
(Tune: Edelweiss)

Stewardship, Stewardship
Every Sunday you greet me
Notes on walls, talk in halls
You seem intent to get me
 
Sermons and hymns seem to bloom and grow
Bloom and grow forever.
Stewardship, stewardship
Bless my money forever

The CGIT Graduates' Song
(Tune: Edelweiss)

Thank you, Lord, on this day
For our many good blessings.
Thank you, Lord, on this day
For our many close friendships.
Glory to God, may You hear our prayer,
Guide us on forever.
Thank you, Lord, on this day
For our blessings and friendships.

HERE AT CAMP
(Tune: Edelweiss)

Here at camp, here at camp
In all kinds of weather
Here at camp, here at camp
Singing all together
Camps come and go
But you must know
Memories last ever
Here at camp, here at camp
Making friends forever.

Egg So White
(tune: Edelweiss)

Egg so white, egg so white,
Ev'ry morning we greet you.
Small and wet, cold? You bet!
We're so happy to eat you!
 
Floating along on your pool of grease,
There for our collation,
Egg so white, egg so white,
You're an abomination!
 
Poached, fried, hard-boiled, Benedict,
A la Russe, scrambled,
Egg so white, egg so white,
Eating you's such a gamble!

MAY THE GOD OF LOVE
(tune edelweiss)

May the God, the God of love
bless and keep you forever,
give you peace, perfect peace,
courage in each endeavor.
 
Now go forth in joy and love,
and in peace forever,
may the God,
God of love,
bless and keep you forever
 
(Repeat from "Now go forth")
