Celestial Milestone
God’s grace within this hall today,
Caps tossed to skies of solemn gray.
Each step anointed, paths unfold,
Scriptures in hand, futures told.
Blessed are we who walk the stage,
With faith as shield, we turn the page.
In humble hearts, His love we store,
Guided by light, forevermore.
Hope sown in every learned word,
Voices uplifted, spirits stirred.
A journey's start, with prayers we plead,
For wisdom’s gate to intercede.
Our dreams, like stars, He sets alight,
Under His watch, we claim the night.
Thankful souls beneath His gaze,
Graduation — a divine praise.
