On to Victory

(Secondary fight song; currently used as primary fight song)

On to victory,
our team will fight and, do or die,
old New Hampshire’s here,
we’ll raise our banners high.
For alma mater dear,
New Hampshire, fight with all your might!
On to victory,
forever blue and white!

New Hampshire Alma Mater

(Sung by the Wildcat Marching Band)

New Hampshire, alma mater,
all hail, all hail to thee!
Behind thee tow’r the mountains,
before thee roars the sea.
Thy sons and daughters ever
thy praises loud will sing.
New Hampshire, alma mater,
accept our offering.

We love thee, old New Hampshire,
and to the white and blue,
where’er our work shall call us,
we always will be true.
We’ll ever guard thy honor,
bright shall thy mem’ry be.
New Hampshire, alma mater,
all hail, all hail to thee!

New Hampshire Hymn

(Official fight song; this recording goes into UNH Cheer as performed in the 2010 WMB Pregame Show)

Fair stands she, all glorious,
New Hampshire, strong and free.
Hail to thee victorious!
New Hampshire, dear to me;
When years bring shadows,
Dark'ning life's sea,
Then, radiant, all glorious,
New Hampshire, thou shalt be.

New Hampshire Colors

(A secondary fight song - written by E. Y. Blewett '26)

We'll take our stand for New Hampshire
Loyal to colors true
White from ever lasting hill
and from the ocean blue
Wherever college men gather
long her worth we'll tell
All your sons and your daughters stand to
Sing your praises Alma Mater Hail.
