SONG TO AVIATORS, by                    
First Line: You are the spirits who show the way
Last Line: To croon a song to the fair and brave!
Subject(s): Aviation & Aviators; Flight; Airplanes; Air Pilots; Flying


You are the Spirits who show the way
To gold-wrought gates where the star hosts play;
You are the wings on which we fly,
Strong white wings -- lift up to the sky.

Lift up to Faith -- lift up to Life --
Carry us high -- above all Strife;
For what is Death but a dancing wave
To croon a song to the fair and brave!
