The woods dark green, the waters sheen
TO his bewidered eyes
Seemed Like some dream, no earthly scene,
But gate Of Paradise
Then landing OH IFS verdant shore
He knelt upon the sod,
And lifting up his voice in prayer
Gave thanks aloud TO God.
And standing on its virgin soil
The flag Of France unfuled
And in the name of God and king
He claimed this new found world,
And holding high the crucifix
Above the shining wave
Unto the fairest lake on earth
Ills humble name he gave.
Three hundred years have passed away
Crimsoned with human blood
Since that fair summer morning when
Champaign first crossed its food
Long years Of war and massacre
When nations stroye to gain
This beauteous land whose shores enclose
The waters Of Champlain.
The savage blood Of Indians brave
Has dyed the headlands wild
And massacre has mingled there
The blood Of wife and child,
The blood Of French and English men
The red blood Of the Scot.
New England's sons have drained their
veins
10 dye this hallowed spot
Gone Is the Indians scalping knife,
Gone is the flag Of France,
Gone the slogan Of the Scot,
Gone is the English lance,
And over lake and mountain height.
Where'er the eve can roam
Free to the winds both day and night
Our banner floats alone.
Far to the north the British flag
Floats peaceful on the breeze
And kindred hands are clasped in love
Across the stormy seas,
And bonds Of commerce Irvine the flags
That passions once did part
And cords Of friendship knit the race
And bind them heart to heart
And here where Frank and Saxon fought
For mastery of world
The starry banner proudly waves
Where war flags were unfurled;
And floating in the summer air
Ger lake and mount and erog
The French and British banners bright
Salute the starry flag.
