THE ALPHA PHI EXPERIENCE

One can never know the meaning behind a smile,
One is never quite so tired as when she runs a hundred miles,
One can never walk in the meadow until she crosses the fence,
One can never really know ‘til she has the experience.


We could never really tell the meaning of Alpha Phi
To someone who’s never been with us,
Though how truthful we may be.
How can we explain the glow in our hearts,
Or the thought behind a tear?
How can we make you understand what keeps each sister dear?


The thought inside an Alpha Phi heart is very seldom spoken.
It’s more like a light that flickers and glows
whenever the dark is broken.
A light in the distance that beckons you near, a warmth you desire.
The flickers found in Alpha Phi hearts kindle bright and blazing fires.


So how can we tell you what it means to belong to Alpha Phi?
How can we make you understand how full your life could be?
How can you walk in that Alpha Phi meadow
until you’ve crossed our fence?
How can we say what we want you to know
until you’ve had the experience?


The way we feel about sisterhood is impossible to measure;
The experience of living in sisterhood
is a great and boundless treasure.
It’s love and laughter and life itself,
it’s a smile and someone who cares.
It’s happiness and tenderness and the thought each sister shares.


It’s learning the meaning behind the smile,
It’s finding you can run another mile,
It’s walking in the meadow that has no fence,
This is the Alpha Phi experience.
