alma mater - furman university lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
the mountain city is her home
a mountain river laves her feet
but from far coasts her children come
and crown her brow with flowers sweet
and ‘neath her shade they rest secure
and drink from wisdom’s fountain pure
then rally, sons and daughters true
’round our dear alma mater

[verse 2]
a ship of royal make is she
and brings her treasures from afar
her truth it is that makes us free
and shines her beacon like a star
’twas furman’s hand that laid her keel
and judson set her ribs of steel
the fathers, prayerful for our weal
launched our dear alma mater

[verse 3]
a mother, gentle, fair and wise
and grave with weight of storied lore
she greets us with love’s radiant eyes
and chains our hearts for evermore
old furman! grateful heirs are we
our love, our lives we give to thee
we’ll keep faith’s vow to serve but thee
our own dear alma mater
