THE PLEDGE

I am proud to be an Indian. I believe that, we are all God's children and, therefore, brothers and sisters to one another. I know that some of my fellow conuntrymen profess different faiths, but they are all a part of my own human family.
I pledge to love all my countrymen regardless of their religion or region and to do all I can to make my country a great Nation.
I also pledge to respect my country's environment, so that the next generation can live in security and peace.
so help me God

Fix your eyes; Xavierites, on the star!
Star divine, beckoning, one and all,
One and all, you and me, close and far,
Close and far-hearken to its clarion call;
"God is love, busy loving you and me, dear"
hear this call, which is coming from above
take this good news and banish every sad tear,
spread this message of hearty cheer and love.
