God made this land for you and me;
He gave us shrubs, He gave us trees;
He gave us brooks and rivers that flow:
He gave us mountains and grass that grows.

He gave us flowers that bloom in the spring,
He gave us birds that fly and sing;
He gave us the sky so bright and blue,
He gave us animals and fish here, too.

God gave us a land of beauty and wealth,
But it's up to us to keep her health;
We must work and strive to keep her clean;
We must make our land a beautiful scene.

PLEASE READ:

It's Our Land was written one day when I had gone walking and saw all kinds of trash on the ground along the road. I thought it was such a shame that people didn't take more pride in this beautiful country that the Lord has given us. I hope we can all remember what a privilege it is to live in this country and how fortunate we are that God has given us such a beautiful land to inhabit.
