Days of the Pioneer

Divine God
All encompassing
Yesterday's dreams and tomorrows futures
Songs from the traditional church hymnary

Omnipotent divine God
Free from sin and adversity

Teacher and lord
Houses humble and forgiving
Each pioneer brave and bold

Pies and cakes, bread and rolls 
Islands of freedom and simplicity
Outreach to the community
New clothes home spun and knit for each man and woman and children
Excellent ways of living 
Each person talented and musical
Real dimensions of a previous history, simply blessed
