Author: Jeremiah E. Rankin Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8340 Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: O land, of all earth’s lands the best Lyrics: 1 O land, of all earth’s lands the best,
Fair Freedom’s empire in the west;
From rising to the setting sun,
All nations here unite in one.
Refrain:
Fair Freedom’s land! fair Freedom’s land!
Begirt with might, long may she stand!
And may her realm Christ’s kingdom be
From lake to gulf, from sea to sea.
2 Our fathers came as exiles here,
They saw our day with vision clear;
Despised at home, the cornerstones
Which God, the nation’s builder, owns. [Refrain]
3 By faith this goodly land I see,
In Christ’s own freedom doubly free;
From north to south, from east to west,
Beneath His gentle scepter blest. [Refrain] Tune Title: WILHELM
