Representative lyrics
English (Original Language)
1. Land of the mountains high, Utah, we love thee! Land of the sunny sky, Utah, we love thee! Far in the glorious west, Throned on the mountains’ crest, In robes of statehood dressed, Utah, we love thee!
2. Columbia’s newest star, Utah, we love thee! Thy lustre shines afar; Utah, we love thee! Bright in our banner’s blue, Among her sisters true, She proudly comes to view; Utah, we love thee!
3. Land of the pioneers, Utah, we love thee! Grow with the coming years, Utah, we love thee! With wealth and peace in store, To fame and glory soar, God-guarded evermore, Utah, we love thee!
