colgate university - in eighteen nineteen lyrics
[verse 1]
long ago, in the valley of chenango, gathered thirteen
funds were low, but abundant was their pluck, in eighteen+nineteen
thirteen prayers were said with rapt devotion
thirteen dollars set the thing in motion
thus began old colgate university in eighteen+nineteen
[chorus]
live true to the memory of those thirteen men of yore
whose faith made tradition that shall live for evermore
whose deeds give us courage to strive as they strove then
’tis the spirit that is colgate, dear mother of men
[verse 2]
up the hill, with profound determination, journeyed thirteen
ring of ax rent the silence of the woods in eighteen+nineteen
forest monarchs bowed to form a clearing
hymns triumphant blended with the cheering
thus began old colgate university in eighteen+nineteen
[chorus]
live true to the memory of those thirteen men of yore
whose faith made tradition that shall live for evermore
whose deeds give us courage to strive as they strove then
’tis the spirit that is colgate, dear mother of men
