bells of iowa state



Green Hills for thy throne,
And for crown a golden melody,
Ringing in the hearts of all
Who bring thee love and loyalty.

Dear Alma Mater,
Make our spirits great,
True and valiant,
Like the Bells of Iowa State



The Bells of Iowa State is a *special* song to me and anyone that has been involved in an ISU Choir.  Not only do they play this at all home football games, but there is importance to this song.  Each year at the ISU Choral Christmas Concert, with all the choirs circled around CY Stephens, unified, sing this song.  It is beautiful! When they play it at games, all former choir members can be seen singing.  What is neat about this that both my sisters (Carly & Ashely), my Dad, and I can be seen singing...okay, well let's be honest, maybe not Ashley! ;)   I loved my time at ISU and involvement in choir.  It is just  a special song that is near and dear to my heart and has such a neat tradition behind it.

LET'S GO CYCLONES!!!!!
