Nazareth Alma Mater
Nazareth, We're proud to sing your praises; Nazareth, We love to shout your glories; For to us you bring the best of happiness; May your glorious portals be forever blest.
Nazareth, Our Alma Mater dear, Right from the heart, in accents loud and clear Our lips proclaim our pledge of loyalty to you, dear Nazareth.
We'll ne'er forget you as the years roll by; Oh, we'll be true to you our own dear High And when we see your blue and white unfurled on high, Our salute of cheer will reach the very sky.
