School Song

Round us the chimes of St. Lucy resounding Calling her children to join her in prayer Fill all our hearts here with pure joy abounding And banish far from us both sorrow and care
Whilst of our school we sing Making the echoes ring
Vaunting her glory, her status, her love Erin and Lanka dear, joining their voices clear Beg for their mother’s kind gifts from above

Then God save our school where our youth grows in
learning
Our youth grows in virtue in beauty and worth Then God save our school where our mothers discerning Are one with their children in sorrow and mirth God save us young and old Fill us with joy untold And make His dear Mother our Mother today Make us to Mary true, Wearing her white and blue Strong and immaculate all through life’s way.
