What makes Marshall University so Great
It is the professors that carry so much
weight

Marshall, a University that has a soul that speaks from within
Its namesake US Chief Justice John Marshall, Is where the credit begins

Marshall was brought to its knees through that tragic plane crash
Seventy-five souls departed this earth, no one could fathom there worth

Huntington prayed for Marshall night and day
Marshall began to rebuild, The Thundering Herd began to play

Through the ashes of great tragedy, something mysterious happens
Through the love and strength of GOD
A stronger University happened 

Marshall University stands today 
on honored grounds for all to share
A university that's large enough to matter but small enough to care

Graduates of Marshall University can hold their heads high
Knowing they can accomplish anything before they die
