Old New
Hampshire
Written by
Dr. John F. Holmes
Composed by Maurice Hoffmann
With
a skill that knows no measure,
From the golden store of Fate
God, in His great love and
wisdom,
Made the rugged Granite State;
Made the lakes, the fields, the
forests;
Made the Rivers and the rills;
Made the bubbling, crystal
fountains
Of New Hampshire's Granite
Hills.
Old
New Hampshire, Old New Hampshire
Old New Hampshire Grand and
Great
We will sing of Old New
Hampshire,
Of the dear old Granite State
Builded He New Hampshire
glorious
From the borders to the sea;
And with matchless charm and
splendor
Blessed her for eternity.
Here, the majesty of mountain;
Here, the grandeur of the lake;
Here, the truth as from the
hillside
Whence her crystal waters break.
Old
New Hampshire, Old New Hampshire
Old New Hampshire Grand and
Great
We will sing of Old New
Hampshire,
Of the dear old Granite State
