University of Maryland Eastern Shore

Alma Mater

 

To Thee, dear Alma Mater

We raise our grateful song,

And through Thy noble teachings,

Thoust made Thy children strong

And thousands still shall praise thee

All earth shall hear their swell

And bind our hearts yet closer

To Thee we love so well

 

Maryland, Maryland

Home of Maroon and Gray

Maryland, Maryland

Thee, we will love always

 

All Hail to Thee fair Maryland

All glory be to Thee

Grow Thou in strength in honor

Through all eternity

 

We love Thy spacious campus

We love Thy towering walls

And noble are Thy teachings

We’ve learned within Thy halls

 

Stand thou forever glorious

Full rob’d in living green

Shine thou in endless splendor

Beneath the trees serene

 

Maryland, Maryland

Home of Maroon and Gray

Maryland, Maryland

Thee, we will love always

 

All Hail to Thee Fair Maryland

All Glory be to Thee

Grow Thou in strength in honor

Through all eternity
