The need had arisen for lyrics in both Norwegian and English. A new edition of the book, meeting this requirement, was published in 1948. The two editors, Carl G. O. Hansen and Frederick Wick, produced several of the translations themselves. Since its initial publication, the bilingual Sons of Norway songbook has gone through numerous printings and been reissued in paperback and digital formats."
