Hymn
An alma mater is the official “anthem” of an educational institution; with music and lyrics originally composed for a specific school. It espouses a sense of belongingness, camaraderie, pride, and pays homage to a university and its values.
UNIVERSITY HYMN
Oh Fatima
Our Alma Mater dear
Guide us in our path
To live our noble dreams
Oh Fatima
Our Alma Mater bless
Teach us to be brave
To rise up through the year
Oh Fatima
Keep us strong and free
Glory, honor, pride,
We bring them back to thee
Onwards we march united
In search for what is true
Guided by Our Lady of Fatima
Obstacles we push aside
Hardships we overcome
But feet can carry us only so much
And so it will have to be our mind
That will carry us to the far horizon
When earth can meet with the sky
And our spirit will reach for the stars
Oh Fatima
Keep us strong and free
Glory, honor, pride,
We bring them back to thee
