Alma Mate] We salule thee, Alma Mater, wc salute ihee with a song. At thy feet our loyal hearts their tribute lay; We had waited for thy coming, in the darkness waited long. Ere the morning star proclaimed thy natal day. Thou has come through tribulation, and thy robe is clean and while. Thou art fairer than the summer in its bloom; Thou art born into a kingdom, and thy crown is all of light. Thou shall smile away the shadow and the gloom. In thy paths the fields shall blossom and the desert shall rejoice. In the wilderness a living fountain spring. For the blind shall see thy beauty and the deaf shall hear ihy voice And the silent tongues their high hozannas sing. Where the rhododendron blushes on the burly mountain ' s breast. In the midland where the wild deer love to roam; Where the water-lily slumbers while the cypress guards its rest, Lo! thy sunny land of promise and thy home. Where the sons of Carolma taught a nation lo be free. And her daughters taught their brothers to be brave; O ' er a land of peaceful plenty, from the highlands lo the sea. May Ihy banner. Alma Mater, ever wave. R. T. Vann.
