Lyrics: Mr. Demetrio Maglalang

Melody: Rev. Fr. Erasio Flores, SVD

We saw thy gleaming glory shine From out the isle and mountain clod We hear thy voice, Oh word Divine We come, Oh Pioneer of God!

Refrain:

Rise, sons and daughters, sons of day Raise high your voices, noble and free Oh sing the praises, sing the lay Oh sing the name DWC!

We seek the wisdom of the Word Like pilgrims lost in aliens sod Unsheathe for us life's conquering sword For us, Oh Pioneer of God (Refrain)

Thou standst the fount of age-old lore God's citadel through rain and flood Thy name by land and far flung shore Resounds, Oh Pioneer of God! (Refrain)
