This Land Is Mine
FRANK COTTINGHAM Harmony by Thoro Harris
MICHAEL J. DAHLB
Stately
1. This land is mine: Her plains, her slopes, Her valleys green and wide, Her dreams, her plans, Her fondest hopes, Her courage and her Pride.
2.This land is mine: A gracious land - A land where justice reigns And tolerance walks hand in hand With peace down winding lanes.
3. This land is mine: Here men may pray, And worship whom they will. Her liberty reigns in the day From mountain and from hill.
4. This land is mine: The land I love: A mighty land is she. And may our loving God above Protect and keep her free.
