The Delta Kappa Gamma Song
Words – Annie Webb Blanton
             Cora M. Martin
Music – Lillan Mohr Fox

Women teachers, to the calling,
Firmly rally, never falling,
Duty ne’er upon us palling,
Staunch, courageous, we!
​
Loyalty and trust e’er heeding!
Mindful of our sisters needing
Aid and guidance from those leading
Helpful may we be!

To Delta Kappa Gamma
Faith we pledge forever!
Hand in hand, our loyal band,
Forward moving ever! 
Onward! ‘tis our sisters need us,
Courage, Faith and Honor lead us!
Wrongs in truth and justice heed us!
Firmly shall we stand!

Guardians of the faith yet sleeping,
For our sisters watch e’er keeping,
Deeds of others now we’re reaping,
We for others stand!
To us pioneers have given;
We return their gifts to Heaven;
Work for others is the leaven
That inspires our band!

Oh, Delta Kappa Gamma;
In thy fold we gather;
Unity and Liberty,
Shall be our watch words ever!
Education e’er we’ll further;
Each is bound to each as brother;
With the faith in one another
We shall win for aye!​
