Land of the Empire Builders, Land of
the Golden West;
Conquered and held by free men,
Fairest and the best.
On-ward and upward ever, Forward and
on, and on;
Hail to thee, Land of the Heroes, My
Oregon.
Land of
the rose and sunshine, Land of the
summer's breeze;
Laden with health and vigor, Fresh
from the western seas.
Blest by the blood of martyrs, Land
of the setting sun;
Hail to thee, Land of Promise, My
Oregon.
