This Our Land

Performed by David Broekman

Recorded 1942
Written by David Broekman

Mountains majestic, reaching the sky
Fields of abundance, wheat growing high
Bounded by oceans, this home is free
Our creed is love of liberty

For this our land, we bow our heads to thee
In grateful prayer, we give our thanks to thee
For thy great gift, the flame of freedom's light
We sing thy praise, oh Lord of strength and might
In all humility we beseech thee
Teach and guide our men
And lead them out of the darkest night
To sing freedom's song again
Above our [?] we build our brave new world
Through [?] and love, we have grown proud and strong
There flyeth on high, our Stars and Stripes unfurled
For this our land, may be with ever long
