"Alpha Gamma Rose" lyrics

[SuskoAM]

In case you ladies haven't gotten them yet...

The Alpha Gamma Rose

Certain love, it is withstanding; holds up strong when needed most.
Certain love, it is reviving; ties a bond and keeps it close.
Certain love is everlasting; every day the caring grows.
All this love's inside a flower, in the Alpha Gamma Rose.

It's this rose that grows outside us; constant gift that we can hold.
It's this rose that blooms inside us; guides our hearts and molds our soul.
Sure there's thorns but every sister guards with pride her loving rose.
Every sister adds her petal; in this way the beauty grows.

When the years are far between us; and you dream about your past.
And you pray it all existed, but you wish that it could last.
Just remember that certain flower; and the love that always flows.
Any time you see such beauty, it's the Alpha Gamma Rose.

~Alpha Omega, Duquesne University
