A SONG OF AMERICA

 

A SONG OF AMERICA 

By A LYNN HAROLD HOUGH  and CARRIE BULLARD 

1. America, my heart's land, 
My singing is for thee;

America, the homeland

Of raptrous liberty; 

America the glad land,

Scattering joy and song; 

America the strong land, 

Fierce battler against wrong! 

2. America, the broad land,

From East to Western sea;

America,  the highland,

Of white peaked mystery;

America, the man's land,

Strong limbed and full of pow'r;  

America, the woman's land,

Fair blooming like a flow'r! 

3.America,  the children's land,

 With mirth and merry plays;

America the old folks land,

With golden sunset days; 

America, my heart's land, 

My singing is for thee;

America, the homeland 

Of raptrous liberty!
