Lyrics
1. University of Richmond
Hail to our Alma Mater
Hail to every fond tradition
Memories that spur us on to Victory
We, they loyal sons forever
Praise thee loud and long
Each man and loyal old grad
Make Hill and Hall glad
With this our Song
Interlude:
Ring it out, our battle cry
Fling it out against the sky
Victory! Victory! Victory!
Rah, Rah, Rah, Rah, Rah, Hail!
2. Stand, you loyal Sons of Richmond
Stand for your Alma Mater
Wearers of the Blue and Crimson
Fight, while we cheer you on to Victory
Though the foe sometime may threaten
Fierce the Conflict be
Courage and fighting spirit
Will turn defeat’s tide
To Victory
Sung by Laurence Rubenstein:
