OUR ALMA MATER ANTHEM
Great and glorious Saint Patrick
Pray for your dear children
Great and glorious Saint Patrick
Hearken to the prayers of your children
1. Ireland’s champion saint all hail
With fadeless glory crowned
The children of your ardent zeal
This day your praise shall sound
2. Born on the winds of charity
To Erin’s coast you flew
Bade Satan from her valleys flee
And his dark shrines o’erthrew
3. Wondering thro ‘errors gloomy right
Our fathers did lose their way
You cheer’d their hearts with heav’nly night
With truth’s consoling ray
4. Oh what a harvest crowned your toil
The earth long cur’d was blessed
Each lovely virture graced its soil
The sinners’ heart find rest
