Alma MaUt Our Alma Mater sits enthroned Above the hurrying town ; The changeful years have never dimmed The glory of her crown. She keeps the white without a stain, The purple queenly still, While countless hearts look up to her — The College on the hill. A constant throng with backward gaze Pass out the well-known door; The world lets some return again, But mam ' nevermore. Yet though the path winds far from her. Their feet can never stray ; Their Alma Mater guides them still, A thousand miles away. Each year new voices swell her praise, Some well-loved face is gone ; Death calls us to Him one by one, But still the song goes on. As long as Pennsylvania keeps Her watch-fires burning bright, Shall Pennsylvania ' s daughters sing The Purple and the White. Anne Meloy ' 96
