262. Native Land Our Country Bright

1 Native Land, our country bright,
Land where shines the Gospel light,
Land where dwells the noble free,
Native Land, we sing of thee.

2 Native Land, thy shores we love,
Plains so fair, and hills above,
Truth thy rock, and God thy King,
Native Land, of thee we sing.

3 Native Land, as years shall roll,
Yield thee still to His control,
Guided by His high behest,
Native Land, be great and blest.
