Cornell University song, 1872
The sheet music:
Accompaniment by James Pitt-Payne:
Lyrics
- Far above Cayuga’s waters
With its waves of blue
Stands our noble Alma Mater
Glorious to view
Chorus:
Lift the chorus, speed it homeward
Loud her praises tell
Hail to thee, oh, Alma Mater
Hail, all hail, Cornell!
2. Far above the busy humming
Of the bustling town
Reared against the arch of heaven
Looks she proudly down
Sung here by Laurence Rubenstein:
