[Chorus]
God bless this lovely land of mine,
And God bless the mountains, her hills and her valleys,
Someday the sun will cease to shine,
And I'll desert this lovely land of mine.

[Verse]
"Well this lovely land," the old man says,
"Will be alive when we are dead",
Well my fathers words still haunt my mind,
Well it's God bless this lovely land of mine.

[Chorus]
Oh, God bless this lovely land of mine,
And God bless the mountains, her hills and her valleys,
Someday the sun will cease to shine,
And I'll desert this lovely land of mine.

[Verse]
Well misty eyed, well, I see my land,
And I hunger for her future grand,
What greater hunger can there be?
Well, I hunger still, to see her free.

[Chorus]
Oh, God bless this lovely land of mine,
And God bless the mountains, her hills and her valleys,
Someday the sun will cease to shine,
And I'll desert this lovely land of mine.

[Verse]
Well my gallant comrades have passed away,
And with this song that I sing today,
Well I'll sing this song before I die,
And it's God bless this lovely land of mine.

[Chorus]
Oh, God bless this lovely land of mine,
And God bless the mountains, her hills and her valleys,
Someday the sun will cease to shine,
And I'll desert this lovely land of mine.

[Outro]
Well, someday the sun will cease to shine,
And I'll desert this lovely land of mine.
