Hail Minnesota, the University of Minnesota hymn, is played by the U of M Marching Band at the 2009 Homecoming football game vs. Purdue at the new TCF Stadium (October 10th, 2009). TCF Stadium is located on campus in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
Lyrics:
Minnesota, hail to thee!
Hail to thee, our state so dear,
Thy light shall ever be
A beacon bright and clear.
Thy son and daughters true
Will proclaim thee near and far,
They shall guard thy fame and adore thy name;
Thou shalt be their Northern Star.
Like the stream that bends to sea,
Like the pine that seeks the blue;
Minnesota, still for thee
Thy sons are strong and true.
From the woods and waters fair;
From the prairies waving far,
At thy call they throng with their shout and song;
Hailing thee their Northern Star.
