School Song
*Mount Carmel Signifies Challenge
We are ready to face it
As we know God is on our Side*
When we find ourselves in trouble,
We will overcome it,
As we know his presence will get us through
REPEAT CHORUS *
As we quest for knowledge
We believe his grace will sustain us
We believe in the truth, we believe in his word,
For the FEAR OF THE LORD IS THE BEGINNING OF WISDOM
So Let Wisdom Prevail
REPEAT CHORUS*
Go Up higher and higher "Mount Carmel"
Higher and Higher "Mount Carmel"
