ALBUM: MY COUNTRY TIS OF THEE - VOL. 2

Georgia

Lyrics

Down where the red clay roads run free,
Under wide skies and sweet magnolia trees.
From the coast where the warm tides roll,
To the heart of the South, you feel its soul.
Savannah whispers through the moss so green,
A painted past like a living dream.
And Macon sings with a rhythm so true,
Every note feels like home to you.

From the fields to the neon glow,
Every mile’s got a story to show.

Oh Georgia, sweet Georgia sky,
Where the peaches grow and the dreams fly high.
From Augusta to Columbus down the line,
Your spirit runs like a southern vine.
Called the Peach State, proud and free,
Georgia, you’re a part of me.

From the heartbeat hum of Delta Air Lines flights,
To the glow of The Coca-Cola Company lights.
The Film Industry meets under one skyline,
And opportunity’s always on time.
The Home Depot builds up dreams from the ground,
And Kia Motors keeps the wheels spinning ‘round.

In every symphony of laughter shared,
Through moments of joy, we’ve always cared.
With each sunset painting the sky aglow,
Through the valleys and mountains, watch our love grow.

In Athens, where the music fills the air,
A university town with a heart that cares.
From the ancient oaks where shadows play,
To the markets alive at the break of day.
Feel the rhythm of the Southern pride,
In every corner, let your heart collide.
From the art to the warmth of every smile,
Georgia, you’ve captured us all the while.

So here’s to a land where the spirit shines,
Where family and friends draw the closest lines.
With Georgia in our hearts, we sing this tune,
Underneath the same stars and a shared moon.

Oklahoma

Lyrics

Out where the red dirt meets the sky,
And the prairie winds go rollin’ by,
There’s a story in the land, deep and strong,
Many nations kept it alive so long.
Cherokee voices, Choctaw pride,
Chickasaw hearts with the river wide,
Creek and Seminole, standing tall,
Oklahoma carries the songs of them all.
Oklahoma, Oklahoma,
Where the red sun paints the plain,
From the tribal drums to Route 66,
Your spirit still remains.

Oklahoma, Oklahoma,
Oil fields shine beneath the stars,
The Sooner State keeps moving on,
With history in its heart.
Black gold rose from the ground below,
Built up towns where the wild winds blow,
Derricks dancing in the morning light,
Energy burning through the Oklahoma night.
From Oklahoma City to Tulsa town,
There’s a heartbeat running underground,
Modern dreams and an old-time song,
A place where the brave keep pressing on.

Oklahoma, Oklahoma,
Where the red sun paints the plain,
From the tribal drums to Route 66,
Your spirit still remains.
Oklahoma, Oklahoma,
Oil fields shine beneath the stars,
The Sooner State keeps moving on,
With history in its heart.
Through the storms and the drought, through the years that come and go,

The heart of the land remains, in every seed we sow.
A tapestry of cultures, woven in the dust,
Together in this journey, united we trust.
From the windswept plains to the whispering trees,
A harmony of lives blending with the breeze,
The laughter of the children, a rhythm soft and true,
In the embrace of Oklahoma, we all find our view.

So here’s to the future, to our paths yet to roam,
In the land of Oklahoma, we’re never alone.
With each passing sunset and every morning bright,
Oklahoma's heart beats strong, shining through the night.

Idaho

Lyrics

Out where the morning paints the mountains gold,
There’s a story in the soil that’s proudly told.
From Boise lights to Meridian’s rise,
Idaho is reaching for the western skies.

Nampa wakes with a working song,
Caldwell fields keep rolling on,
With a farmer’s hands and a river’s flow,
There’s a heartbeat in Idaho.

Idaho, Idaho, where the wild winds roam,
From the farms and ranches to the place called home.
Twenty-five thousand strong on the land we know,
Growing more than one-eighty-five gifts that show.
Potatoes in the valley, mountains in the glow,
There’s a harvest of dreams in Idaho.

Coeur d’Alene shines by the water blue,
Post Falls roars with a northern view.
Idaho Falls where the river runs wide,
With a whitewater spirit and a fisherman’s pride.
Forests stand tall where the pine trees sway,
Tourists come from miles away.
Rafts ride the rapids, eagles fly low,
Freedom feels alive in Idaho.

Food processing humming, factories strong,
Technology rising, moving right along.
Manufacturing hands and timberland pride,
A state built tough with a countrywide stride.
From the canyon to the lake, from the river to the snow,
Every mile sings Idaho.

Idaho, Idaho, let the bright rivers roll,
With a farmer’s heart and a mountain soul.
Boise, Meridian, Nampa in the light,
Caldwell, Coeur d’Alene shining through the night.
Idaho Falls and Post Falls, let the whole world know,
There’s a harvest of hope in Idaho.

Potatoes in the earth, dreams in the sky,
Whitewater rushing as the rafts go by.
Where the forests stand and the waterfalls flow,
God painted something beautiful—Idaho.

Oregon

Lyrics

Golden sun breaks through clouds, calling me to roam
In the heart of the Northwest, I’ve found my home

From the lights of Portland shining in the rain,
To Eugene where the river rolls again,
There’s a spirit in the mountains, there’s a whisper in the trees,
And a wild Pacific sunset riding in the breeze.

Oh, feel the freedom as the air is fresh and clean,
Oregon, you’re the beauty in between.

Oregon, Oregon, beautiful and free,
With your coastline waves rolling home to me,
From your valleys full of vineyards to your mountains standing tall,
Oregon, Oregon, you’ve got it all.

Down in Hillsboro, dreams are growing strong,
In Beaverton, the people keep moving along,
Out in Bend, where the high desert meets the sky,
Oregon, you lift my heart so high.

Oh, feel the freedom as the air is fresh and clean,
Oregon, you’re the beauty in between.

Oregon, Oregon, beautiful and free,
With your coastline waves rolling home to me,
From your valleys full of vineyards to your mountains standing tall,
Oregon, Oregon, you’ve got it all.

The Willamette Valley is rich and wide,
With farms and fields on every side,
Berries in the summer, hazelnuts in the sun,
Excellent wine when the long day’s done.

Your coastline is a wonder, rugged, bright, and grand,
Where cliffs meet the ocean and the waves kiss the sand,
Lighthouses shining through the misty gray,
Calling every traveler to stay one more day.

Oregon, Oregon, beautiful and free,
With your coastline waves rolling home to me,
From your valleys full of vineyards to your mountains standing tall,
Oregon, Oregon, you’ve got it all.

At Crater Lake, so deep and blue,
A miracle of nature shining pure and true,
Oregon’s only national park, a landmark known by name,
A jewel in the mountains with a timeless flame.

Oregon, Oregon, beautiful and free,
From Portland lights to the wild blue sea,
Eugene, Hillsboro, Bend, and Beaverton call,
Oregon, Oregon, you’ve got it all.

Oh Oregon, where you smell the shore,
Cannon Beach, Newport, Seaside,
Lincoln City, and the dramatic Pacific cliffs.
Oregon, I’ll love you forevermore.

Nebraska

Lyrics

Out where the prairie meets the morning sky,
Golden fields go rolling by,
From Omaha lights to the open plain,
Nebraska’s heart beats strong again.

In Lincoln, the capital, proud and true,
Red sunsets shine in a sky so blue,
From Bellevue streets to Grand Island wide,
There’s Cornhusker pride on every side.

Nebraska, Nebraska, the Cornhusker State,
Where the land works hard and the dreams grow great,
With corn and cattle, soybeans and grain,
Hope keeps rising like summer rain.
Nebraska, Nebraska, strong and free,
A heartland song in our history.

In Kearney, the cranes fly across the dawn,
In Fremont, the spirit keeps moving on,
Beef cattle grazing, wheat fields gold,
Stories of the heartland proudly told.

Corn, soybeans, pork, and dairy farms,
Hay in the fields and work-worn arms,
Ethanol rising from the harvest ground,
Nebraska keeps the country moving around.

Nebraska, Nebraska, the Cornhusker State,
Where the land works hard and the dreams grow great,
With corn and cattle, soybeans and grain,
Hope keeps rising like summer rain.
Nebraska, Nebraska, strong and free,
A heartland song in our history.

From Fred Astaire’s graceful feet,
To Johnny Carson’s comedy beat,
Henry Fonda on the silver screen,
Hillary Swank chasing every dream.

And Malcolm X with a voice so bold,
A story of courage forever told,
Nebraska gave the world a spark,
A light that still shines through the dark.

Nebraska, Nebraska, the Cornhusker State,
Where the land works hard and the dreams grow great,
With beef and corn, soybeans and wheat,
A heartland rhythm beneath our feet.
Nebraska, Nebraska, proud and true,
America’s heartland sings through you.

Omaha, Lincoln, Bellevue lights,
Grand Island under prairie nights,
Kearney and Fremont, strong and free,
Nebraska lives in the heart of me.

Iowa

Lyrics

There’s a quiet kind of magic where the tall corn grows,
Golden waves in the wind, rollin’ soft and slow.
Under open skies that never seem to end,
Decorah and Driftless, where the fields feel like a friend.
From gravel roads to small-town lights at night,
You can feel the heart of America burnin' bright.

It’s the sound of a screen door, a summer breeze,
Front porch talk and simple dreams.

Oh Iowa, you’re steady as the land you hold,
Full of stories, full of soul, in every shade of gold.
From Des Moines lights to the river towns that flow,
Through Cedar Rapids where the strong winds blow.
Davenport down to Waterloo nights,
Every mile feels like home, every star shines bright.
Yeah Iowa, you’re more than fields and sky,
You’re the place where roots run deep and dreams can fly.

Walk the trails where the earth tells ancient tales,
Through Maquoketa Caves State Park, where wonder prevails.
With echoes of laughter in the midnight glow,
The heartbeat of the land whispers soft and slow.
Covered bridges stand proud, stories in their frame,
Every corner we turn seems to call your name.

It’s the sound of laughter that fills the air,
Moments of love, beyond compare.

In every sunset painted over fields of grain,
There’s a warmth that lingers, a love that remains.
From the bluest sky to the greenest forest tall,
In this land of promise, we’re one and all.

So here’s to Iowa, a light in the dark,
With memories spun, like a beautiful arc.
Through every season, our hearts will sing,
In the heartland of America, where hope takes wing.

Wisconsin

Lyrics

Up north where the pine trees whisper,
And the lake winds roll so free,
There’s a land of farms and Friday nights,
And small-town memories.
Madison shines as the capital,
Where the bright ideas grow,
From college streets to country roads,
Wisconsin’s heart beats slow.

Wisconsin, Wisconsin,
The Badger State so proud,
With lakes and rivers, forests and parks,
And green fields rolling out.
From Milwaukee lights to Green Bay nights,
Where the Packers own the flame,
Wisconsin, Wisconsin,
We’re singing out your name.

Dairy barns in the morning sun,
That’s the biggest industry,
Cheese and milk and working hands,
A proud old legacy.
Milwaukee is the largest city,
With music, beer, and cheer,
A long-standing brewing tradition
That’s been loved for many years.

Oshkosh, Janesville, Beaver Dam,
Each town has a story to tell,
Cranberry fields in autumn red,
And church bells ringing well.
Thousands of lakes call out your name,
For fishing, boats, and dreams,
Hunting trails and camping nights,
Under northern starry beams.

We’ll hike the hills in summer,
Snowmobile through the snow,
Go skiing down the winter trails,
Where the cold north breezes blow.
From river bends to forest paths,
From dairy farms to cheers,
Wisconsin keeps on shining
Through all the changing years.

Wisconsin, Wisconsin,
The Badger State so proud,
With lakes and rivers, forests and parks,
And green fields rolling out.
From Madison to Milwaukee,
Green Bay’s faithful flame,

Wisconsin, Wisconsin,
We’re singing out your name.
Raise it high for the dairy land,
For cranberries, lakes, and streams,
Wisconsin, sweet Wisconsin,
You’re a heartland kind of dream.

Wisconsin, oh-oh, sing it loud,
Underneath the starry crowd,
We're dancing with the summer breeze,
In this heartland, always pleased.

Indiana

Lyrics

Rolling through the heartland where the cornfields meet the sky,
Indianapolis is shining as the capital lights fly.
From Fort Wayne down to Evansville, the rivers roll along,
Carmel streets and Fishers dreams keep moving strong.

There’s a hometown kind of heartbeat, steady as a train,
A little hard work, a little hope, running through the plains.
From factories to farmland, healing hands and pride,
Indiana’s got a spirit you can feel inside.

Indiana, Hoosier State,
Where the engines roar and the dreamers race.
From the Dunes where the lake winds blow,
To the small-town roads where the wildflowers grow.
Indiana, strong and true,
There’s a heartland song in everything you do.

South Bend keeps on rising with the echoes of the past,
A place where faith and football lights were built to last.
At Indiana Dunes where the sand meets blue,
Lake Michigan whispers something old and new.

Agriculture feeds the nation, manufacturing builds the way,
Healthcare brings compassion to another brand-new day.
With every mile of open road and every courthouse square,
There’s a Hoosier kind of welcome waiting there.

Indiana, Hoosier State,
Where the engines roar and the dreamers race.
From the Dunes where the lake winds blow,
To the small-town roads where the wildflowers grow.
Indiana, strong and true,
There’s a heartland song in everything you do.

Michael Jackson had the rhythm, James Dean had the flame,
John Mellencamp sang the stories of the places people came.
From auto racing glory to the fields of gold,
Indiana keeps a legend in its soul.

Indiana, Hoosier State,
Where the engines roar and the dreamers race.
From Indianapolis shining bright,
To Fort Wayne, Evansville, and South Bend lights.
Carmel and Fishers, proud and free,
You’re the heartland’s living melody.
Indiana, strong and true,
There’s an American song in everything you do.

Oh Indiana, carry me home,
Where the Hoosier heart is carved in stone.

Driving past the prairies, watching sunsets paint the field,
Every little moment holds the stories that we build.
Gather around the bonfire, share a laugh and a song,
These roads are lined with memories of where we all belong.

From the hills of Bloomington to the spirit of the fair,
Each corner holds a treasure only Hoosiers truly share.
The laughter and the struggle, the joy and the pain,
Indiana's in our hearts, like a sweet and gentle rain.

Indiana, Hoosier State,
Where the engines roar and the dreamers race.
From the Dunes where the lake winds blow,
To the small-town roads where the wildflowers grow.
Indiana, strong and true,
There’s a heartland song in everything you do.
Michael Jackson had the rhythm, James Dean had the flame,
John Mellencamp sang the stories of the places people came.
From auto racing glory to the fields of gold,
Indiana keeps a legend in its soul.

Indiana, Hoosier State,
Where the engines roar and the dreamers race.
From Indianapolis shining bright,
To Fort Wayne, Evansville, and South Bend lights.
Carmel and Fishers, proud and free,
You’re the heartland’s living melody.
Indiana, strong and true,
There’s an American song in everything you do.

Oh Indiana, carry me home,
Where the Hoosier heart is carved in stone.

So here’s to you, Indiana, our love’s forever clear,
With every beat on this journey, we’ll hold you ever near.
You’re the fabric of our story, stitched in every tune,
From your fields beneath the stars, to the warmth of afternoon.

Ohio

Lyrics

From Columbus lights where the new dreams rise,
To Cleveland shining on Lake Erie skies.
Cincinnati rolls where the river runs wide,
With Buckeye pride on every side.

Toledo glass catching fire in the sun,
Akron working hard till the day is done.
Dayton looks up where the Wright wings flew,
And Canton keeps the legends true.

Ohio, Ohio, the Buckeye State,
Where history stands and the future waits.
From lakefront nights to the hills so high,
You keep your heart wide as the sky.
Ohio, Ohio, strong and free,
A song of hope and legacy.
From working hands to stars that shine,
Ohio, your spirit’s one of a kind.

Cleveland rocks with a Hall of Fame sound,
Sports teams roaring all through the town.
Hospitals healing, artists creating,
Factory lights and new roads waiting.

Central Ohio’s building something new,
Semiconductors and technology too.
Advanced machines and minds that lead,
Planting tomorrow’s strongest seed.

Ohio, Ohio, the Buckeye State,
Where history stands and the future waits.
From lakefront nights to the hills so high,
You keep your heart wide as the sky.
Ohio, Ohio, strong and free,
A song of hope and legacy.
From working hands to stars that shine,
Ohio, your spirit’s one of a kind.

Hocking Hills where the waterfalls fall,
Caves and cliffs and the forest calls,
Hikers climb where the wild hearts go,
Through stone and moss where clear streams flow.

Toledo’s art and Lake Erie breeze,
Glass City shining through industry,
Auto roads and a harbor’s flame,
Ohio keeps earning its proud name.

Grant was born in Point Pleasant light,
Taft in Cincinnati with a judge’s might,
Harding near Blooming Grove began,
Garfield rose as a working man.

McKinley came from Niles with pride,
Hayes from Delaware’s Ohio side,
Benjamin Harrison, North Bend’s own,
Seven presidents called Ohio home.

Dean Martin sang with a golden tone,
John Legend’s voice made the world his own,
Tracy Chapman told truth with grace,
Ohio gave them a starting place.

Akron rubber roads and working hands,
Dayton’s wings where the Wright dream lands,
Canton’s football glory high,
Ohio keeps reaching for the sky.

Ohio, Ohio, the Buckeye State,
Where history stands and the future waits.
From Lake Erie shores to the hills so high,
You keep your heart wide as the sky.
Ohio, Ohio, proud and free,
A song of strength and memory.
From presidents’ names to music divine,
Ohio, your spirit’s one of a kind.

Columbus to Cleveland, Cincinnati too,
Toledo, Akron, Dayton blue.
Canton rising in the morning light,
Ohio, you’re America’s pride.

Delaware

Lyrics

A place where history stands, golden threads in the sands,
Delaware, our pride, the story written wide.

Delaware, you were first to stand,
First to join this promised land,
Under the Constitution’s light,
You stepped ahead and claimed your right.
Small in size but strong in name,
You carved your place in history’s frame,
From colonial streets to ocean air,
There’s freedom in the Delaware.

Delaware, Delaware, the First State shining bright,
From Dover’s heart to Wilmington lights,
Rehoboth waves roll soft and blue,
Every road leads back to you.
Delaware, Delaware, proud and standing tall,
One of the smallest, but you’ve got it all.

Dover is the capital, steady and proud,
Where history speaks both clear and loud,
Wilmington rises, the largest city strong,
With business power moving along.
Corporate law and companies grow,
Marshes, rivers, and wildlife refuges flow,
From old landmarks to modern ways,
Second-smallest U.S. state through the days.

Delaware, Delaware, the First State shining bright,
From Dover’s heart to Wilmington lights,
Rehoboth waves roll soft and blue,
Every road leads back to you.
Delaware, Delaware, proud and standing tall,
One of the smallest, but you’ve got it all.

Newark’s alive with youthful fire,
Lewes looks out where the tides climb higher,
Rehoboth Beach with summer skies,
Saltwater joy in every eye.

Then engines roar and the grandstands cheer,
At Dover’s Monster Mile each year,
The Speedway thunder shakes the ground,
Delaware pride is all around.
Beautiful beaches, history deep,
Colonial memories still we keep,
From quiet towns to ocean sand,
A mighty spirit fills this land.

Delaware, Delaware, the First State shining bright,
From Dover’s heart to Wilmington lights,
Rehoboth waves roll soft and blue,
Every road leads back to you.
Delaware, Delaware, proud and standing tall,
One of the smallest, but you’ve got it all.

Delaware, Delaware, forever first of all,
One of the smallest, but you’ve got it all.
Delaware, Delaware, the First State shining bright,
From Dover’s heart to Wilmington lights,
Every road leads back to you.
Delaware, Delaware, forever first of all.

New Hampshire

Lyrics

Up where the granite mountains rise,
There’s a wind that knows your name,
Mount Washington touches the northern sky,
With a wild and fearless flame.
Highest point in the Northeast,
Standing proud through snow and sun,
New Hampshire keeps her head held high,
Where freedom’s never done.

New Hampshire, New Hampshire,
Where maple leaves set the hills ablaze,
Ski slopes fill the winter days,
Pride in their colonial light,
First to have Britain give up the fight.
From Mount Washington’s mighty crown,
To Portsmouth by the tide,
New Hampshire sings forever strong,
“Live Free or Die.”

There’s a quiet kind of courage
In every small-town light,
Colonial buildings treasured,
Preserved with pride and delight.
Small businesses with their ingenuity run the state,
Holding independence is a favored trait.

New Hampshire, New Hampshire,
Where maple leaves set the hills ablaze,
Ski slopes fill the winter days,
Pride in their colonial light,
First to have Britain give up the fight.
From Mount Washington’s mighty crown,
To Portsmouth by the tide,
New Hampshire sings forever strong,
“Live Free or Die.”

First in the nation, voices rise,
Presidential dreams begin,
At the primary crossroads,
Where the people have their say again.
Concord stands as capital strong,
Portsmouth guards the tide,
At the Naval Shipyard by the sea,
There’s service, skill, and pride.

New Hampshire, New Hampshire,
Where maple leaves set the hills ablaze,
Ski slopes fill the winter days,
Pride in their colonial light,
First to have Britain give up the fight.
From Mount Washington’s mighty crown,
To Portsmouth by the tide,
New Hampshire sings forever strong,
“Live Free or Die.”
Dartmouth’s halls were founded young,
Before Revolution’s flame,
A college born in history,
Still carrying its name.
Twenty colleges light the minds
Across the granite land,
Where learning meets the mountain air,
And futures take a stand.

From the majestic Presidential mountain range,
And Appalachian trail grandeur,
To the Merrimac & Connecticut rivers,
Autumn leaves add to the lure.
From old brick towns to forest trails,
From harbor lights to pine,
New Hampshire holds America
In one proud northern line.
New Hampshire, New Hampshire,
Where maple leaves set the hills ablaze,

Ski slopes fill the winter days,
Pride in their colonial light,
First to have Britain give up the fight.
From Mount Washington’s mighty crown,
To Portsmouth by the tide,
New Hampshire sings forever strong,
“Live Free or Die.”

Oh New Hampshire wild and true,
Keene, Manchester, Nashua too.
All the towns and nature combine,
Liberty and beauty is what we find.

Vermont

Lyrics

In Vermont where the Connecticut river flows,
And the small-town lights all softly glows.
Through the Green Mountains running strong and free,
There’s a kind of peace that captures me.
Breathtaking views in every mile,
Nature’s voice in every style.

Known for dairy farming and valleys deep,
It’s a beauty you don’t just see—you keep.

Oh Vermont, you shine all year,
Every season crystal clear.
World-renowned when autumn calls,
Golden fire on mountains tall.
From summer green to winter white,
You’re a living work of light.
Yeah, you give the soul a brand-new start,
Four seasons of the heart.

In Burlington by the water’s side,
Where the sunsets stretch out far and wide.
Down in Rutland where the stories grow,
Through the years and the winter snow.
In Barre carved in stone and pride,
Where the granite hills stand side by side.
And Montpelier small but strong and true,
Its spirit whispers softly just for you.

Oh Vermont, you shine all year,
Every season crystal clear.
World-renowned when autumn calls,
Golden fire on mountains tall.
From summer green to winter white,

You’re a living work of light.
Yeah, you give the soul a brand-new start,
Four seasons of the heart.

When the snowfall blankets every lane,
And the autumn leaves ignite again,
Through the woods where the quiet lives,
Vermont, it’s your heart that always gives.
In every corner, a story unfolds,
Of warmth and wonder, of treasures untold.

In your embrace, I find my place,
Every moment, a sweet embrace.
Dear Vermont, forever you’ll stay,
In my heart, where dreams play.

South Dakota

Lyrics

Out where the prairie meets the endless sky,
Spearfish soars as the seasons drift by.
There’s a quiet kind of freedom in the open land,
Where time slows down and life feels grand.
From fields of corn to the Black Hills tall,
You can hear the wild calling, feel it in your soul.
It’s a place where roots run deep and strong,
And every road feels like home all along.

Oh South Dakota, wide and true,
Big sky dreams in shades of blue.
From small-town lights to hills that rise,
There’s a piece of heaven in your skies.
Every mile tells a story you can’t outrun,
Under prairie stars and a setting sun.
Oh South Dakota, you carry me,
In your wind, I feel so free.

In Sioux Falls where the river falls in grace,
Water dancing through a timeless place.
Aberdeen with a hometown feel,
A perfect blend of heart and steel.
Then west you ride to Rapid City streets,
Gateway to where the mountains meet.
Driving through the canyons, lost in thought,
In every corner, adventure’s sought.

The echoes of laughter on summer nights,
Underneath the vastness, the infinite heights.
The whisper of the wind through the trees,
In this haven, my heart finds ease.
The spirit of the land, the stories unfold,
In the warmth of the sun and the beauty it holds.
May my feet wander but my heart stays true,
Forever linked to the soil and the blue.

So here’s to the memories, the life that we’ve drawn,
In South Dakota’s embrace, I’ll forever belong.
With every heartbeat, I’ll sing this song,
In a land so majestic, where my heart is strong.
