Oregon, My Oregon

"Oregon, My Oregon" is the state song of Oregon. It was written in 1920 by J.A. Buchanan and composed by Henry B. Murtaghin order to win a competition sponsored by the Society of Oregon Composers. The song became so popular that it was officially adopted as the official state song in 1927.

Lyrics

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.
