Alma Mater

Far above Atlantic Waters
Etched against the sky,
Stands our faithful Alma Meter,
Memories never die.

Ever onward we will always
Keep thee as our guide.
Never stumbling, never shriking,
In our heartful pride.

-Chorus-
Forward, ever be our watchword
Conquer and prevail,
Hail to thee Almar Mater,
Stonington all hail

Loyal we’ll ever be
Steadfast and true

We'll be so happy
While we're here with you

RAH, RAH!
