This Is My Country - Vaughn Monroe

This is my country!

Land of my birth!

Thisis my country!

Grandest on earth!

I pledge thee my allegiance, America, the bold,

For this is my country to have and to hold.

What diff’rence if I hail from North or South

Or from the East or West?

My heart is filled with love for all of these.

I only know I swell with pride and deep within my breast

I thrill to see Old Glory paint the breeze.

With hand upon heart I thank the Lord For this my native land,

For all I love is here within her gates.

My sould is rooted deeply in the soil on which I stand,

For these are mine own United States.

This is my country!

Land of my choice!

This is my country!

Hear my proud voice!

I pledge thee my allegiance, America, the bold,

For this is my country!

To have and to hold.
