From Alma Mater Vol. 1: The Midwest. Available Now!
*Grand Valley*
Lakers, Lead Us
To one of the nation’s
Fastest growing schools.
To a college experience
That heats as the weather cools.
Lead Us
To the dorms where relationships form,
Lead Us
To a land where the
Lakers Swarm.
Lakers, Lead Us
To the greatest Division II Dominance,
Lead Us
To a society directed t’wards Prominence.
Lead us past the tumbles of the Michigan snow,
Grand Valley State Lakers:
Lead us to grow.
Lead us to treat learning as a profession—
To take the passes with the failures:
Each as a Lesson.
Go walk with real friends, not the fakers that mislead us,
Grand Valley State University
Lakers,
Lead Us.
