The JLGIS Hymn

With voices proud and sweet, We all hail
J-L-G-I-S, in gratitude and joyous praise,
For JLGIS, beloved alma mater of our youthful days
My childhood's early dreams are closely linked with thee
Sweet are the days of childhood
With friends we love and care
Your banner waving to the sky in blue and white
Thru all years will loyal be
Chorus
Long live JLGIS
Beloved Alma Mater
Alma mater dear we pledge
To glorify your noble name
We march together hand in hand
We sing together at your call
We are proud thee JLGIS
Thy mission is to develop the youth
In wisdom and ideas for truth
To be trained for life
And find their place in the world
Where everyone is an achiever
REPEAT CHORUS
JLGIS Beloved
School of vision through the years
Do help us see the future
We all hail and we revere
Thy name forever
JLGIS ever faithful we all adore
