Tune, “How Firm a Foundation.” The State of New Hampshire is dear to us all, Her hills and her mountains respond to the call, Her onflowing rivers in gladness awake To sound forth the praises of Old Granite State. Her heroes undaunted in times of distress ’Neath the flag of the union went forth with the rest; When duty is calling and danger is nigh The Old Granite State will conquer or die. Her sons and her daughters are loyal and brave, ’Neath the banner of Christ they march onward to save; In the battle for right which they undertake As firm as the granite in Old Granite State. From loftiest height to lowliest shore New Hampshire, our home land, is our’s evermore! “For Christ and the Church” she resounds the glad call, The Old Granite State sends a greeting to all. THY PLACE. Do not dream away life’s morning, Rise to bless as does the sun; Let no shadow fall about thee, Till thy given work is done. Look not downward, to the valley, Blessings come from heights above; Falter not upon thy journey, Let each effort teem with love.
