GOD BLESS OUR NATIVE LAND.

For her

God bless our na tive land! Firm may she
our pray'r shall rise, To God a bove the skies;

ev

er stand,

Through storm and night When the wild tempests rave, Ru- ler of Ön him we wait,

Thou who art ev

er nigh, Guarding with

wind and wave, Do thou our country save,
watch-ful eye, To thee a - loud we cry,

By thy great might. God save our state.
