ODE TO AMERICA by MARY P. DENNY

Subject(s): PRAISE; UNITED STATES; WEALTH; AMERICA; RICHES; FORTUNES;

America, America!
We chant thy note of praise,
One hymn of life upraise
Through all the nation's way,
Unto the perfect day,
A hymn of trust and love
To our great God above.
May truth and peace abide
Through our great country wide.
Give wealth unto the land
From east to western strand,
Shine rays of joy always
Unto the perfect day!
