As Betas Now We Meet

Words: Stanley Coulter, Hanover 1871
Tune: How Can I leave Thee?
Key: A flat

As Betas’now we meet, a brother new to greet
By grasp of hand, by grasp of hand;
Oh! may our sacred fire kindle a new desire,
And true Greek love inspire for all our band.

Our splendid shield he bears, the wreath of old he wears
And diamond bright, and diamond bright,
Oh! may he ever gain pure and unsullied fame
For Beta’s glorious name for truth and right.
