Lyrics

  1. Tune every heart and every voice
    Bid every care withdraw
    Let all with one accord rejoice
    In praise of Old Nassau

Refrain:
In praise of Old Nassau, we sing
Hurrah! Hurrah! Hurrah!
Our hearts will give, while we shall live
Three cheers for Old Nassau

  1. Let music rule the fleeting hour
    Her mantle round us draw
    And thrill each heart with all her power
    In praise of Old Nassau
  2. And when these walls in dust are laid
    With reverence and awe
    Another throng shall breathe our song
    In praise of Old Nassau
  3. Till then with joy our songs we’ll bring
    And while a breath we draw
    We’ll all unite to shout and sing
    Long life to Old Nassau
