Student Anthem

We Arise
Words and Music by Ruben Duarte
Arranged and Orchestrated by Ron Blount

We stand embracing this brand new day,
Knowing our future is here today;
And we thank God who has paved the way to arise.
We arise as we live and learn,
We arise as our candle burns;
Ever bright, for our destiny unfolds.
We arise to make a diff’rence for our world.
Shining from South San Antonio,
Our A&M is the place we grow;
Like eagles soaring upon the wind we arise.
We arise as we live and learn,
We arise as our candle burns;
Ever bright, for our destiny unfolds.
We arise to make a diff’rence for our world.
We arise to make a dff’rence for our world.
