CELEBRATING 91 YEARS OF EDUCATING OUR NATION
On Christ the sure foundation
On Christ the sure foundation,
Resolved and proud we stand;
Our past secured by mercies,
Our future in God’s hand.
They blazed a path most glorious,
Who served us selflessly;
And we, the course victorious
Must stay relentlessly.
On eagle’s wings still mounting,
As day succeeds to day;
Excelsior swells the chorus;
YET HIGHER! All the way.
2. O God of strength and wisdom,
Source of all love and truth;
Through childhood days You nurture
And guide us into youth;
In later years, still guiding,
You light the way we go;
We look to you Great Teacher,
For all we need to know.
Time, gifts and all we offer,
Life’s calling to fulfill;
That as we go, EXCELSIOR,
We do God’s sovereign will.
