"Ohio Wesleyan Sweetly and strong" is Ohio Wesleyan University's alma mater.

The song traditionally concludes campus performances, especially the University convocation by the Ohio Wesleyan University Glee Club.

The first two verses are the best known and are usually the only verses sung. They are as follows:

Ohio Wesleyan, Sweetly and strong
Rises our hymn of praise for thee alone;
Heaven re-echoes it, loud let it ring,
Ohio Wesleyan! Loyal hearts sing.
Ohio Wesleyan! Proud is thy crown.
Rarest of laurels ev'r Vict'ry has known;
Noblest achievements have hallowed thy name,
Ohio Wesleyan! Deathless thy fame.
