DKG: Leading Women Educators Impacting Education Worldwide
From the Heart
Give us, O Lord, a realization
of what our organization stands for;
with its high ideals always before us,
may our faith and courage never weaken;
Grant that we may be steadfast
in our purpose
as we endeavor
to meet the responsibilities
and obligations set before us;
Help us to be truly loyal one to another,
and may we strive to become
more worthy members
of our profession;
And as we pledge anew
our services to our noble cause,
may unity and cooperation
continue unbroken to the end.
