Creed
Gamma Phi Beta from the past has given a heritage that makes a fuller life.
Gamma Phi Beta in the present bids us strive for lasting values and ideals.
Gamma Phi Beta in the days to come will prove that fundamentals can endure.
Therefore we shall embody in our lives the truths that make for finer womanhood.
Once more we pledge a loyalty that means adherence to all true and noble things;
A learning that enriches all our days with magic gold that is forever ours;
A labor that each hour will glorify the simple, common task, the common cause;
A love that will be strong and great enough to encompass and to pity all the world.
Love, Labor, Learning, Loyalty--Our Creed
