My Country

My urge to travel is always there
I like to go most anywhere

A beautiful country we have right here
Everything is beautiful both far and near

The oceans, the rockies, the prairies and more
We need to appreciate our beautiful shores

The rocks and trees of the world to the north
Makes driving to see it a time of worth

Everywhere we go we have such scenes
Makes us glad to be human beings

We get to appreciate all that we can see
A wealth of beauty for you and me

Our world is such a fantastic place
What a great gift from God for the human race
