A Song for Mary

"A Song for Mary"
Lyrics by Fr James Reuter SJ
Music by Capt Jose Campana (adapted from Calixa Lavalée’s music to the hymn “O Canada”)
Sung by the Ateneo Chamber Singers
We stand on a hill between the earth and sky
Now all is still where Loyola's colors fly
Our course is run and the setting sun ends Ateneo's day
Eyes are dry at the last goodbye
This is the Ateneo way
Mary for you!
For your white and blue!
We pray you'll keep us, Mary, constantly true!
We pray you'll keep us, Mary, faithful to you!
Down from the hill, down to the world go I
Rememb'ring still, how the bright Blue Eagles fly
Through joys and tears
Through the laughing years
We sing our battle song
Win or lose, it's the school we choose
This is the place where we belong!
Mary for you!
For your white and blue!
We pray you'll keep us, Mary, constantly true!
We pray you'll keep us, Mary, faithful to you!
