NEW HAMPSHIRE

 

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 Rivers and the rills;

Made the bubbling, crystal fountains

Of New Hampshire's Granite Hills



Refrain:


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.

Hers, the majesty of mountain;

Hers, the grandeur of the lake;

Hers, the truth as from the hillside

Whence her crystal waters break


Refrain
