KofC Opening and Closing Odes, circa 1998.
The Knights of Columbus had an Opening Ode and a Closing Ode to be sung at the beginning and end of meetings. St. John's Council still sang the opening ode through the end of the 1990's. The opening ode was sung to the tune of "O Tannenbaum". The closing ode was sung to the the tune of "My Country, 'Tis of Thee".
This particular card was used at our St. John's Council meetings around 1998. Copies of this card were handed to members during meetings.
