Honesta Obtinete








For old girls everywhere..............and with thanks to Sonia King for the Rosa Bassett School Tribute Website.

In all things give praise & rejoice,
Honesta Obtinete
And labour together with pride,
Honesta Obtinete.
To honour strength of mind,
to comfort the fearful of heart,
Hold fast to that which is good,
Hold fast to truth and right.

For we are the children of light,
Honesta Obtinete
And we are the children of day,
Honesta Obtinete
Quench not the Spirit that seeks
to follow the vision of seers.
Hold fast to that which is good,
Hold fast to truth and right.

Be watchful and sober in thought;
Honesta Obtinete
Thus cometh the wisdom & power.
Honesta Obtinete
Put on the breastplate of faith;
the helmet of love and hope.
Hold fast to that which is good.
Hold fast to truth and right.

Here's hoping we will all get the chance to sing it together again soon ladies!
