TOWN OF WAKEFIELD
The challenge that confronts us now We welcome for us all, Since "In Ourselves Our Future Lies" - So answer we this call.
As classmates we are bound in love, Remembrances oft told. But nobler yet, the years ahead Before our eyes unfold.
And now, Dear School, enshrined within Our hearts and thus our lives, We honor thee for lessons taught As parting times arrives.
Refrain: O Alma Mater, Wakefield High, To thee we sing this night As symbol of our loyalty --- Long may thy name be bright!
Words by Joyce Georgia Denning, 1950 Music by Harry Herbert Bird, 1950
