Verse_Lyric: 2 2. On our fields of grass and grain drop, O Lord, the kindly rain. On our wide and fruitful land, crown the labors of each hand. Let thy kind protection be o’er our commerce on the sea. Open, Lord, Thy bounteous hand; bless Thy people, bless our land. Verse_Lyric: 3 3. Let our leaders ever be those that love and honor Thee. Let the pow’rs by Thee ordained be in righteousness maintained. In the hearts of all increase love of piety and peace; thus united, we shall stand one wide, free and happy land.
