Why I Wanted To Be A Sigma
In today's world of chaos and doubt
There's a fine group of women
Who know what they're about;
Their aims and ideals soar towards the sky;
Their aspirations and high standards
This world can't defy-
That's why I wanted to be a SIGMA!

They march as shining beacons of light--
Soldiers of those virtues that ever endure;
Carrying torches that stand for the right--
Lighting pathways noble and pure.
Giving their service -- doing their best,
Eager for knowledge -- standing today's test.
That's why I wanted to be a SIGMA!

Their banner waves as they march along;
"Greater service -- Greater Progress" is seen.
Several hundred -- true and strong,
Filled with courage and intellect keen.
Shoulders erect and heads held high--
Their purity of ideals -- none can deny.
That's why I wanted to be a SIGMA!

Onward they march -- this courageous band;
Ever knowing there's more to do.
The finest women of our land
Firmly united in a sisterhood true.
Challenging women -- a fine group to know--
Progressing through service -- Sigma Gamma Rho!
That's why I wanted to be a SIGMA!
