Mmm… I feel the Spirit movin’,

Mmm… I feel the Spirit movin’, Like a hymn in Sunday air… Yeah, the Lord laid down a legacy, And the Pearls were standing there. Seven women with a purpose, And a God‑ordained kind of care. First was Mary Lou Allison Gardner Little, She lit the fire deep in our soul… Then Dorothy Hanley Whiteside stepped forward, With a faith that made us whole. And Vivian Irene White Marbury, Sang strength like a sanctified roll. Nannie Mae Gahn Johnson followed, With wisdom steady and true… Then Hattie Mae Annette Dulin Redford, Built dreams in royal blue. Bessie Mae Downey Martin stood faithful, Doing what God called her to do. And Cubena McClure, that seventh Pearl, Closed the circle with holy grace… Seven lights on Heaven’s altar, Still shining all over this place. Oh, Sigma women keep on rising, ’Cause the Pearls laid down the base. So I lift my hands in worship, For the legacy they began… Seven Pearls of Sigma Gamma Rho, Held together by God’s own hand. Yeah, we walk in their anointed footsteps, As the blues meets the promised land.
