O heaven, my home and native land
True patriot love in all thy sons command
With glowing hearts we wait to see
The true land strong and free
From far and wide, O heaven
We stand on guard for thee.
O heaven, where pines and maples grow
Great prairies spread and lordly rivers flow
How dear to us thy broad domain
All over the universe
Thou land of hope for all who trust
Thou true land strong and free.
Ruler supreme, who hearest humble prayer
Hold our hearts in thy loving care
Help us to find, Oh God in Thee
A lasting rich reward
As waiting for the better day
We ever stand on guard.
