What are the lyrics to the Pledge Song?
Pledge to us now with all thy heart and we'll be true to you; be to us all a faithful pledge both loving, kind, and true. Then we shall be more closely bound as each month passes by, so when you gain a KD pin we each may feel its tie. Now here we are, hand clasped in hand, a loving sisterhood; through all our worry, work, and fun, still faithful as we should. No thoughtless deed, no idle word shall leave a sting behind- For are we not fond sisters all, who thro' all things are kind?
What are the words to the Poem/Build Thee?
Build thee more stately mansions, O my soul, As the swift seasons roll; Leave thy low vaulted past; Let each new temple, nobler than the last, Shut thee from heaven with a dome more vast, 'Til thou at length are free, leaving thine outgrown shell by Life's unresting sea.

A faithful band of sisters we, thus linked by bonds of dear KD. Through all our lives we sisters stand, bound heart to heart and hand to hand. Oh Kappa Delta, noble name, far in the future reach thy fame, we'll ever loyal be to thee, our own K D, our own K D.
We place the diamond shield we wear, beneath the stronger shield of prayer. While love shall call and honor stand, while heart meets heart and hand aids hand. Oh Kappa Delta, noble fame, far in the future reach they fame, we'll ever loyal be to thee, our own K D, our own K D. Oh, may no evil stain thy rose, no tempest shake thy love's repose, No cloud obscure the light that glows, around the lives made one in thee. Oh Kappa Delta, noble name, far in the future reach thy fame, we'll ever loyal be to thee, our own K D, our own K D.
