The beautiful lyrics for the Cordillera Career Development College (CCDC) hymn was written by Reverend Rosendo Sagansay. The music was composed by Patrick Matthew Pooten, a composer from the town of Besao in Mt. Province.
Lift thy banner high and lofty
O’er valleys, hills and plains
Wave it high to tell a story
Of a school that it proclaims
Cordillera College we love thy name
We will share your vision and dreams
And thy portals ne’er be forsaken
Till the world will know thy fame
You’ll be proud of us as we take our place
Men and women of our race
And thy banner shall ne’er be folded
By the people thou hast made.
Onward then ye sons and daughters
And in one accord we sing
For her banner our lives we offer
To her ourselves we bring
In the land so blest with prosperity
Thy children loyal will be
In our hearts and minds we pledge thee
Cordillera College will stay
You’ll be proud of us as we take our place
Men and women of our race
And thy banner shall ne’er be folded
By the people thou hast made.
