Hail

On the white shores she stands
With her welcoming hands
As an Alma Mater true

Far and wide she is our greatest pride

Ever so loyal we’ll be
So we’ll sing it out
And we’ll raise a shout
For our dear ZCSPC.

Chorus:
Then Hail, all Hail to ZCSPC!
Our pride, or joy, our all,
We’ll sing out the glory
And we’ll tell out the story
Of the school we love the best.
Then Hail, All Hail to ZCSPC!
Our Alma Mater true
And we’ll ever stand
Every heart and hand
For the honor of ZCSPC!
Once again in a mighty refrain,
Hail ZCSPC!

From the ends of the earth

Men have heard of her worth
And have found her to be true
She’s so grand
She’s the best in the land
Ne’er can her full worth be told
Tho’ both loud and long
Her alumni strong
Will sing of maroon and gold
(Sing Refrain)
