IN GOD WE TRUST

IN GOD WE TRUST
From ancient lands across the sea
Here came our fathers to be free
They felled the forest. ploughed the field,
And won the wealth the waters yield.
In mine and shop they delyed and
wrought,
And bravely for their freedom fought.
They feared the Lord-naught else they
feared,
As they a mighty nation reared.
From Canada to Mexico
One land, one law, one flag we know;
And far across the western seas
Old Glory floats on every breeze;
While north and south and east and west,
Above our best deserving blest,
To One as mercifui as Just
We raise the hymn, In God We Trust
