Songs of Lambda Chi Alpha


Hip Hip Hooray for Dear Old Lambda Chi

Let's give a hip hip hooray, for dear old Lambda Chi,
Let's give a hip hip hooray, and shout it to the sky.
We'll make all of the rafters ring when all of the brothers sing,
About the Cross and Crescent, because it's the grandest thing.
We'll shout it loud and strong,
We'll shout it all day long,
Because we want the whole world to know, (to know),
We stand together to win and!
For dear old Lambda Chi...HEY!

All Hail
All hail, all hail to Lambda Chi
Our fair fraternity
We'll laud her praises to the sky
Wherever we may be
In East, in West, in North, in South
Is found our faithful band;
To colors, purple, green, and gold
We pledge both heart and hand.
Oh Crescent set with stones of white,
Shine out and light our way,
Oh, cross and crown of power and might
Lead us a right for aye.
With swords of strength,
We'll fight for rite.

We're All Good Brothers

Oh, We're all good brothers, each one the other's friend
and we'll be good brothers until this world shall end.
So while we're together lets give a rousing cheer, for
Lambda - Chi - Alpha, the bond we hold so dear.
 
HYMN TO LAMBDA CHI

Here we pledge our hearts together,
To Lambda Chi.
naught from thee our love shall sever,
Our Lambda Chi.

All our lives and work shall praise thee,
As aloft our song's we raise,
While his tribute each man pays the,
Dear Lambda Chi.


I guard thy honor ever,
Fair Lambda Chi.
Failing in thy precepts never,
My Lambda Chi.

And when e'er I'm called to serve thee,
Oh my master, will't thou nerve me,
And forbid that ought should swerve me,
From Lambda Chi.
 
Magic Carpet Ride

Music & Words by Rushton Moreve

I like to dream,
Yes, yes, right between my sound machine,
On a cloud of sound, I drift into the night,
Any place it goes is alright,
Goes far, flies near,
To the stars away from here.

Well, you don't know what we can find,
Why don't you come with me little girl,
On a Magic Carpet Ride,
You don't know what we can see,
Why don't you tell your dreams to me,
Fantasy will set you free.

Close your eyes girl,
Look inside girl,
Let the sound take you away ....

Last night I owned Alladin's Lamp,
And so I wished that I could stay,
Before the thing could answer me,
Well someone came and took the lamp away,
I looked around,
A lousy candle is all I found!

Well, you don't know what we can find,
Why don't you come with me little girl,
On a Magic Carpet Ride,
Well you don't know what we can see,
Why don't you tell your dreams to me,
Fantasy will set you free.

Close your eyes girl,
Look inside girl,
Let the sound take you away ....


LAMBDA CHI ALPHA'S DARLING


For she's a Lambda Chi Alpha's darling,
The apple of my eye,
A Lambda Chi Alpha's darling,
And that rates her ace high,
For wherever she goes, she's smiling,
A twinkle in her eye,
For she's a Lambda Chi Alpha's darling,
Not the sweetheart of Sigma Chi.
Oh, the A-T-O's view her with envy,
As do the T-K-E's
She has Sigma Nu's in a frenzy,
The beta's on their knees,
But when her Lambda Chi Comes a Calling,
You can always hear her sigh, "AAAH",
She's the sweetheart of Lambda Chi...
My Lambda Chi


A SWEETHEART OF LAMBDA CHI

(Pinning Song)


No more the Lambda Chi badge is mine,
That e'er to my heart was near,
Emblem of vows that faithful hold,
True brothers year on year.

But tho' its pearls, I did resign,
I still shall have no fear,
They safe repose o'er heart of gold,
Forever to me most dear.

Hear Lambda's song on this clear night,
A crescent above shines high,
Bathes in a dream of pure white light,
A sweetheart of Lambda Chi.

To pledge a heart that is so true,
T'will stand the test of time,
Safely to her, I give my heart,
For she will be ever mine.
