FAIR HARVARD ALMA MATER Lyrics Words text trending sing along song music
Fair Harvard!
We join (rejoice) in thy jubilee throng
and with blessings surrender thee o'er
By these festival rites, from the age that is past
to the age that is waiting before
O relic and type of our ancestors' worth
that has long kept their memory warm
First flower of the wilderness star of their night
Calm rising through change and through storm

Farewell! be thy destinies onward and bright!
To thy children the lesson still give
With freedom to think & with patience to bear
and for right ever bravely to live
Let not moss-covered error
moor thee at its side
as the world on truth's current glides by
Be the herald of light, and the bearer of love
'till the stock of the Puritans die
(please comment, share & subscribe)
