Lyrics

Past the live oaks bending over Broad River tide

You carry quiet courage with the morning on your side

In a small white coat you make the numbers clear

Turning careful hands to hope for everyone who's here

From Beaufort Rose to

Charleston's Harbor Breeze You bring a steady heart wherever

healing needs

South Carolina, let that warm wind roll

Lowcountry light on every waiting soul

Biomedical technicians,

patient and proud Serving our community, standing

strong and proud With every test you run, with every truth you

find You give a family peace one careful line at a time

A mother waits beside the humming clinic door

A farmer calls a lab from a county hospital floor

You check each little detail,

never rushing through the day

Because somebody's whole tomorrow rests upon the work you weigh

And when the ship runs long beneath the palmetto sky

You keep a little mercy in the reasons why

South Carolina, let that warm wind roll

Lowcountry light on every waiting soul

Biomedical technicians Patient and proud

Serving our community Standing strong and proud

With every test you run

With every truth you find

You give a family peace

One careful line at a time

Saltmarsh singing Church bells down the lane

A neighbor's name remembered in the middle of the strain

No grand parade,

no spotlight on the wall

Just faithful hands answering when the people call

South Carolina, let that warm wind roll

Lowcountry light on every waiting soul

Biomedical technicians,

patient and proud Serving our communities, lifting

every town With every test you run, with every truth you

find You leave a little courage in the heart you touch in time

where the river meets the ocean where the live

oak branches sway South Carolina thanks you for the

care you give each day
