Listen to our Alma Mater!
Words by A. Marjory Taylor Hardwick, Class of 1915.
Sung by the 2017-2018 Bel Cantos.
Sing we our song to thee,
Praise, honor, victory
Forevermore be thine, Alma Mater!
Fast roll the years by, soon must we part—
But shall thy mem’ry Rest in ev’ry heart.
Chorus:
Hail then, Alma Mater,
Our help, our guide, our friend!
The love we bear for thee
Is love that hath no end.
Give we our pledge to thee,
Faith, love, and loyalty
Forevermore be thine, Alma Mater!
May we whatever life shall give,
Keeping thy standards, worthy of thee live.
Chorus:
Hail then, Alma Mater,
Our help, our guide, our friend!
The love we bear for thee
Is love that hath no end.
Sing we our song to thee,
Praise, honor, victory
Forevermore be thine, Alma Mater!
Fast roll the years by, soon must we part—
But shall thy mem’ry Rest in ev’ry heart.
Chorus:
Hail then, Alma Mater,
Our help, our guide, our friend!

May we whatever life shall give,
Keeping thy standards, worthy of thee live.
Chorus:
Hail then, Alma Mater,
Our help, our guide, our friend!
The love we bear for thee
Is love that hath no end.
