NSDAPS HYMN

Nuestra Señora de Aranzazu, Our parochial school
Our dear Alma Mater,
You have molded us to live
The life of the Virgin Mary, our patroness and Jesus Christ our Lord.
You have formed us to live the truth
And to be able to proclaim the Good News of God's Kingdom here on earth
But most of all you have trained us to live the values of the Gospel.
Ready to give without counting the cost
Ready to offer one's life for Christ
Ever ready to defend Him throughout our lives
And whatsoever may happen you'll stand firm
The fragrance of your mem'ries shall be scattered in all places:
In homes, towns, regions, and the whole universe, We will shout for joy with love and pride in our hearts.
Hail! Nuestra Señora de Aranzazu, our dear parochial school.
