Dr. Cook leading the crowd in the Alma Mater sung to the tune of “Finlandia”
“Tis not by gain of wealth or earthly treasure,
Shall King’s be known, to these things be the praise
But we will give all thanks to God our Father
Who ever loves, protects and guides our ways
And we His children hail our Alma Mater
Purple and white her royal colors raise.
So to our school, though humble her beginning
Bound close in Christian love to her we bring
Our pledge of loyalty and prayerful memories
Pride ever strong in hearts that grateful sing
Proclaiming victory o’er the cares that press her,
Triumphant hail the college of The King!”
