Here’s a rousing cheer
For our Convent dear
On fair Johor Bahru
May we be faithful to every rule
To each tradition true
Through weal or woe we forward go
United great and small
In virtue simple and duty strong
Is the motto for us all
In virtue simple and duty strong
Is the motto for us all
Through far we roam
From our ancient home
Our thoughts will often stray
Back to these happy convent days
Where our hearts are warm and gay
We love each dear familiar room
And gaze with rightful pride
At our lofty building on the hill
Where Malaysians sunshine smiles
At our lofty building on the hill
Where Malaysians sunshine smiles
May the good Lord bless
Our sultan kind
Who in peace preserves our town
He ‘throned Our Lady’s image there
Where she sweetly gazes down
God keep us loyal to our friends
Our teachers and our rules
May we bless the day
When we found our way
To our own dear Convent School
May we bless the day
When we found our way
To our own dear Convent School

DeleteI have always been proud to have been a Convent student. I finished my MCE in 1970. This school anthem brings back sweet memories and makes me very nostalgic. Going through the lyrics I spotted a few grammatical errors. Please get the person in charge to contact me for amendments.
