Almighty God, creator and giver of life we give you thanks and vow to seek Your light through the knowledge that we gain and impart with our peers in our University
Grant us forgiveness for the sins we confess and give us strength to discern what is best four ourselves, and more so, for the benefit of others
Teach us to have grateful hearts and enlightened minds as we learn and share our talents to the community
For the greater good and a brighter future of the City of Manila and our country
All these for your greater glory.
Amen.
