W:Ode to Newfoundland
W:
W:When sun rays crown thy pine clad hills,
W:And summer spreads her hand,
W:When silvern voices tune thy rills,
W:We love thee, smiling land.
W:We love thee, we love thee,
W:We love thee, smiling land.
W:
W:When spreads thy cloak of shimmering white,
W:At winter's stern command,
W:Thro' shortened day, and starlit night,
W:We love thee, frozen land.
W:We love thee, we love thee
W:We love thee, frozen land.
W:As blinding storm gusts fret thy shore,
W:
W:And wild waves lash thy strand,
W:Thro' spindrift swirl, and tempest roar,
W:We love thee windswept land.
W:We love thee, we love thee
W:We love thee windswept land.
W:As loved our fathers, so we love,
W:
W:Where once they stood, we stand;
W:Their prayer we raise to Heaven above,
W:God guard thee, Newfoundland
W:God guard thee, God guard thee,
W:God guard thee, Newfoundland!
