THE OLD GRANITE STATE
ОглавлениеThe New Hampshire Christian Endeavor State Song
Tune, “How Firm a Foundation.”
The State of New Hampshire is dear to us all,
Her hills and her mountains respond to the call,
Her onflowing rivers in gladness awake
To sound forth the praises of Old Granite State.
Her heroes undaunted in times of distress
’Neath the flag of the union went forth with the rest;
When duty is calling and danger is nigh
The Old Granite State will conquer or die.
Her sons and her daughters are loyal and brave,
’Neath the banner of Christ they march onward to save;
In the battle for right which they undertake
As firm as the granite in Old Granite State.
From loftiest height to lowliest shore
New Hampshire, our home land, is our’s evermore!
“For Christ and the Church” she resounds the glad call,
The Old Granite State sends a greeting to all.
