State Song of Oregon - Oregon, My Oregon

The state song of Oregon, The Beaver State.
Lyrics in English:
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.

My anthem, i listen to this every day in the morning and night

[@Queen-Of-Hearts144]

King of all Kings, Lord of all, please hear my prayers and supplications, today on Yom Kippur, I ask for the lives of my people, which are your people too. I hold you to the covenant that You made, agreeing with Yourself, to make us fruitful and to multiply on this Earth of yours, which is Your Stepstool, for our people have been sold to our enemies, and they are slaughtering us left and right. Intervene because they will be not much people to bring in to Your kingdom. Amen😢❤

Lived in Oregon my whole life, never knew there was a state anthem

[@erinwitt472]

Wish if i was born in oregon and never move out of it.

[@RRW359]

Don't think I've ever actually listened to this and I've lived here all my life. Do all versions pronounce Oregon this questionably or is it just this one?

[@Kavonalair]

When I was in 3rd grade we had to sing it once a week after saying the pledge of allegiance. I learned it with the same incorrect pronunciation.

The Simpsons apparently live here. And Gravity Falls.

[@KomputerKid]

My head canon has always been that the Simpsons live at home (Oregon)

When you realize what the first half of Ore-Ida actually refers to...

[@adithya_2001]

Newly-updated lyrics for this: Land of Majestic Mountains, land of the Great Northwest. Forests and rollin' rivers, grandest and the best. Onward 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 love of freedom, land of the setting sun; Hail to thee, Land of the Promise, My Oregon. (Oregon.) Hail to thee, Land of the Promise, My Oregon. (MY OREGON!)

I liked the original version except for the fairest part. The new one limits Oregon to its beauty when there is more to Oregon then nature.

[@cramer4506]

"Updated" AKA Ruined. Miserable new lyrics so bad they had to be imposed by mandate rather than any public debate.

This state cannot pass any law to ban fireworks statewide, but that does not stop the domino effect that's taking place with individual cities and counties banning them!
