ALMA MATER

College of love and charity We gather 'round thy noble shrine; We lift our voice in praise to thee, And ask a blessing all divine.

Chorus FAM-U! FAM-U! I love thee! I'll fight and win what'er the battle be. The Orange and the Green thy Sons shall e'er defend And loyal to thy voice of love attend FAM-U! FAM-U! FAM-U! I love thee!

On gridiron, diamond track and field, Thy sons the vict'ry never yield,- And while they tread a broader life Thy love shall stay them in the strife.

Chorus

God ever keep us true to thee; Thy faith that truth shall make men free, Shall guide thy loyal sons aright And fend them thru' the skeptic night.

Chorus
