MU BACK TO SCHOOL GUIDE
Lyrics to the Alma Mater
Can you pay Marshall University homage by singing the alma mater? In case you've gone through four or five years of school and still haven't picked up the words, here they are:
Alma Mater
Marshall gracious Alma Mater,
We thy name revere;
May each noble son and daughter
Cherish thine honor dear.
May thy lamp be ever bright
Guiding us to truth and light;
As a beacon o'er dark water
This is for thee our prayer.
May the years be kind to Marshall;
May she grow in fame;
May her children fail her never
True to her beacon flame
May her spirit brave and strong
Honor right and conquer wrong;
This the burden of our song
Ever her truth proclaim.
-- C.E. and James Haworth
