Lyrics from Relief Society Song Book, 1919, no. 26
1. Our mountain home so dear, Where crystal waters clear Flow ever free, Flow ever free; While thro’ the valleys wide The flow’rs on ev’ry side, Blooming in stately pride, Are fair to see. 2. We’ll roam the verdant hills, And by the sparkling rills Pluck the wild flow’rs, Pluck the wild flow’rs; The fragrance on the air, The landscape bright and fair, And sunshine ev’rywhere, Make pleasant hours. 3. In sylvan depth and shade, In forest and in glade, Where’er we pass, Where’er we pass, The hand of God we see, In leaf and bud and tree, Or bird or humming bee, Or blade of grass. 4. The streamlet, flow’r and sod, Bespeak the works of God; And all combine, And all combine, With most transporting grace, His handiwork to trace, Thro’ nature’s smiling face, In heart divine.
