Alma Mater

On the city's Western border,
reared against the sky,
Proudly stands our Alma Mater,
As the years roll by.
Forward ever be thy watch word,
Conquer and prevail,
Hail to Thee, O Alma Mater,
Mercer, Hail, all Hail!
Cherished by they sons and daughters,
Mem'ries sweet shall throng,
Round our hearts, O Alma Mater,
As we sing our song.
Forward ever be thy watch word,
Conquer and prevail,
Hail to Thee, O Alma Mater,
Mercer, Hail, all Hail!

Hail to Mercer! (aka Fight Song)

Hail to thee the best school in the land!
Come all ye loyal sons and daughters,
Ring out the vict'ry song,
United all each foe we'll conquer,
The battle now will not be long, Doot doot doot doot doot!
The orange and black is proudly flying,
Like a sign high in the sky,
That leads us on in triumph,
For Mercer we will live and die!

In basketball we'll place her name ahead of all the rest,
In scholarship, when put to test she is the very best,
Hail to Thee! (Mercer University)
Hail to Thee! (Mercer University)

Hail to thee the best school in the land!
Come all ye loyal sons and daughters,
Ring out the vict'ry song,
United all each foe we'll conquer,
The battle now will not be long, Doot doot doot doot doot!
The orange and black is proudly flying,
Like a sign high in the sky,
That leads us on in triumph,
For Mercer we will live and die!

Rah!
