Don't miss your chance to hear Westminster's alma mater sung at the close of today's home football game vs. Belen at 4 p.m. If you're at the game, below are the lyrics to sing along (You can also download the music and lyrics here):

Westminster's Alma Mater
Near the waving of the palm trees
By the ocean blue
Proudly stands our alma mater
Strong and bold and true
O Westminster, ours forever
faith that will not fail!
We, ambassadors for Jesus
Shine, for God prevails!

In a year-long, collaborative process, Westminster's alma mater was rewritten and reimagined by Westminster Band Director Seth Carlson and former Choir Director Lauren Hartman. The new lyrics and arrangement premiered at last year's graduation sung by the Westminster choir and theatre graduates. This year, the alma mater has been incorporated into student life at football games and even at chapel, thanks to a worship rendition created by Westminster fine arts faculty Tony Rodriguez and Joseph Carpenter.

The alma mater is becoming a new tradition, one that brings our community together in song and reminds us of who we are and whom we are called to serve. We hope you’ll join in and sing along at today’s game!
