Home of our youth,
To Thee we bring the homage of lives at the spring,
Training thy sons for the game of life,
Sending them forth to the age-long strife,
Ready thy name ever bright to uphold,
Ready 'gainst evil to fight and be bold.
May those who left thee in years that are past.
Guard well thy honour, to truth holding fast.
Home of our Youth to thee will we sing,
Long may thy name on our lips proudly ring.

Home of Our Youth , by Rupert Baldwin, 1938
Home of our youth,
To Thee we bring the homage of lives at the spring,
Training thy sons for the game of life,
Sending them forth to the age-long strife,
Ready thy name ever bright to uphold,
Ready 'gainst evil to fight and be bold.
May those who left thee in years that are past.
Guard well thy honour, to truth holding fast.
Home of our Youth to thee will we sing,
Long may thy name on our lips proudly ring.
