(sung to the Onward Christian Solders tune)

They call us the Patriots,
Better than the rest.
Jesus is our Savior,
That makes us the best!
Let us lift our voices, let’s cheer one and all.
P-A-T-R-I-O-T-S Lets go! Rah! Rah! Rah!
Onward Christian soldiers,
Go and win us pride.
We are Open Door, and, Christ is on our side!
