university of arkansas at pine bluff - alma mater lyrics

[verse 1]
state college, we greet thee with love and devotion;
our hearts and our treasures we bring to thy shrine.
with arms that are strong from all harm we defend thee;
thy name shall we cherish, dear mother of mine.
we walk through this wide world with peace and with courage.
we gained while we sat at thy sanctified seat.
we come when thou call us to battle dear mother,
and cast all we have at thy glorified feet.

[chorus]
alma mater, we love thee, we love thee, dear mother;
and all that we have we cast down at thy feet.

[verse 2]
in days of our childhood we romped in the wildwood;
we waded the brooks, sipped the sweet morning dew.
we heard of great treasures of wisdom and knowledge;
of wealth not for purchase of goodness and you.
we entered the portals with some trepidation.
we know not what fates awaited us there.
thou girded our loins with the strength of gibraltar;
we drank from thy fountain and breathed thy pure air.

[chorus]
alma mater, we love thee, we love thee, dear mother;
and all that we have we cast down at thy feet.
[verse 3]
we breathed thy great spirit and learned more of wisdom, more
truth through the vistas of life can we see.
thy work of thy hand as it guided our footsteps;
with faith thou did’st teach as we sat by thy knee.
no more shall we wonder who gave thee thy powers,
no one but our god can bestow such a gift.
we step with thy heart+strokes today, and forever
thy flag to the breezes of heaven we lift.

[chorus]
alma mater, we love thee, we love thee, dear mother;
and all that we have we cast down at thy feet.
