On a golden autumn morning	A
Just fifty years ago	B
When harvests ripe lay smiling	A
In the sunshine s yellow glow	B
A pious group was standing	A
Round the lighted altar s flame	C
In the humble convent chapel	D
Of the Nuns of Notre Dame	C
	-
A girl of fifteen summers	E
With gentle serious air	F
In novice garb of purple	D
Was humbly kneeling there	F
Uttering the vows so binding	A
Whose magic power sufficed	G
To make that child like maiden	H
The well loved Bride of Christ	G
	-
No troubled anxious shadow	B
O er clouded that young brow	I
As with look and voice unfaltering	A
She breathed her solemn vow	I
No regretful glances cast she	J
On the pomps that she had spurned	K
Nor the dream of love and pleasure	L
From which she had coldly turned	K
	-
	-
	-
Fifty years of joy and sorrow	B
Since that day have o er her flown	M
Years of words and deeds of mercy	J
Living but for God alone	M
And again a group is standing	A
By this holy scene enticed	G
To renew the golden bridal	D
Of this faithful spouse of Christ	G
	-
True her brow has lost the smoothness	N
And her cheek the fresh young glow	B
That adorned them on that autumn	O
Morning fifty years ago	B
But oh think not that her Bridegroom	P
Loves her anything the less	Q
He sees but the inward beauty	J
And the spirit s loveliness	Q
	-
Cloister honors long have fallen	H
Ceaseless constant to her lot	R
But like cloister honors falling	A
Unto one who sought them not	R
Daughter meek of the great Foundress	Q
Of thy honored house and name	C
Worthy art thou to be Abbess	Q
Of the nuns of Notre Dame	C
