We would like to thank Selda Grauerholz of Coffeyville, Kansas, for calling our attention to these songs. The Homestead of the Free. The rugged northern pine. Upbearing like the ark of old, A Bible in our van, We go to test the truth of God Against the fraud of man. Bring the sickle, speed the plough, Turn the ready soil.
Freedom is the noblest pay For the true man's toil.
Hasten all with me. We'll sing upon the Kansas plains A song of liberty.
