There she stands for truth and right, Sending forth her rays of light, Clad in robes of majesty; 0 Howard, we sing of thee Be thou stiU our guide and stay, Leading us from day to day: Make us true and teal and strong Ever bold to battle wrong. When from thee we've gone away, May we strive for thee each day As we sail life's rugged sea, 0 Howard, we'll sing of thee. - Words, J. H. flROOKS, '16 - Music, P. D.
