Alma Mater

O Southern, Dear Southern, Thy praises we shall sing
Until all the heavens and echoes loudly ring,
The winds of the sky as they pass us by,
Will adoration bring.

O Southern, Dear Southern, we owe our all to thee,
In downfall or victory, we’ll always loyal be.
Thy sons and daughters, as they work,
Will be inspired by thee.

O Southern, Dear Southern, Thy name will ever be,
As mighty as the river, that flows into the seam
As pure and true as the Gold and Blue,
That stand out bold for Thee.

Southern University

Defender of the gold and blue

We will always loyal be

And raise a cheer for you.

All for one and one for all

We’ve got the will to win for thee

And we’ll fight, fight, fight

Til we win the victory.
