We've Won
(Music and Lyrics by Gary Valenciano)

It seems like not too long ago
The ground on which we stand,
Placed a fire within our hearts
And future in our hands.
And though no one was certain of
Each others destiny,
We knew somehow the fire in us
Was meant for all to see.

And now seeing each other like brother to brother
We still remain standing.
And now all reunited with arrows ignited
For one and all to know.

We still carry it bright
The hope and the light
Bannering the shield of green and white.
And we will carry it on
Just as we've always believed from the start.
We can build up each other and together move on
Even if we just light one soul
We've won.

Words are not enough to say just what it feels inside.
To see the Brothers, friends, all archers gathered here tonight.
To those who somehow taught us well
We've seen from day to day.
We offer you our gratitude as you helped us find our way.

And now seeing each other like brother to brother
We still remain standing.
And now all reunited with arrows ignited
To say to all.

We still carry it bright the hope and the light
Bannering the shield of green and white.
And we will carry it on
Just as we've always believed from the start.
We can build up each other and together move on
Even if we just light one soul
We've won.

And though we know the test of time
May come to break us all apart
We will pick up all the pieces
Never giving up one part
If there's one thing that we've learned
From St. John Baptist de la Salle
Were the words of our battle cry
Live Jesus in our hearts.

We still carry it bright the hope and the light
Bannering the shield of green and white.
And we will carry it on
Just as we've always believed from the start.
We can build up each other and grow
There's still so much to learn and know
With His light here to guide us
As the battles rage on
Even if we just light one soul
We've won.
Hail Hail
We've Won.
Hail Hail Hail
