Alma Mater
‘Neath these
Carolina skies
On Earth’s fairest land,
Here our alma mater lies
Held in God’s own hand.
May His blessings keep thee safe
May Thy children be
True to these ideals we’ve learned
James Byrnes High, from thee
.
Chorus
To our alma mater bring songs of love and praise;
Grateful hearts will not forget happy high school days....
Rally ‘round the grey and blue! Sound the rebel cry!
Loyal sons and daughters true of James F. Byrnes High.
