Up & On

I sang this as a small boy. Never felt more passionate to sing any other school song. Always believed that a great many graduated in wisdom and stature.

Up & On
Lives are in the making here
Hearts are in the waking here
Mighty undertaking here
Up and On! Up and On!

We are arming for the fight
Pressing on with all our might
Pluming wings for higher flight
Up and On!

Up boys! Truest fame lies in high endeavour
Play the game! Keep the flame Burning brightly ever!

Fair before us lies the way
Time for work and time for play
Fill the measure while we may
Up and On! Up and On!

Life and time will not delay
Time is running fast away
Life is now today today
Up and On!

Up boys! Truest fame lies in high endeavour
Play the game! Keep the flame burning brightly ever!

Foes in plenty we shall meet
Hearts courageous scorn defeat
So we press with eager feet
Up and On! Up and On!

Ever onward to the fight
Ever upward to the Light
Ever true to GOD and RIGHT
Up and On!

Up boys! Truest fame lies in high endeavour
Play the game! Keep the flame burning brightly ever!
