The OA Alma Mater
ICA Faculty, 1929
Come, all ye friends of our loved Alma Mater
Come blend with joy your voices here today.
Broadcasting far and near the praise the glory
of this our school, the dear old O.A.
Refrain:
All Hail! All Hail to our loved Alma Mater,
whose standard safe will guide us in life's way:
Virtue, Honor, Education, Love of God and Love of Nation
is our heritage all hail to dear O.A.
‘Tis here we spent blessed youth's happy springtime,
at Oldenburg with loved ones fond and true
Here once again let us with true devotion,
pledge our heart's love and loyalty to you!
