Lyrics

When we set forth, at Heaven's command
We sought a land to lay our claim;
This great adventure, to venture for our land,
And God did guide us to this land
"Delamaria! Our land and holy home:
"To Liberty and Harvest shall we sing."

The great wars of past brought us here,
As must we mustnt forget them;
For freedom the did fight for us,
We honor them all with this strain.
"Delamaria! Our land and holy home:
"To Liberty and Harvest shall we sing."

As oceans crossed, and rivers swam,
Our fathers never did give in;
As venture did guide us here,
And God did bless us all to arrive here,
"Delamaria! Our land and holy home:
"To Liberty and Harvest shall we sing."
"Delamaria! To fight for thee is key:
"For our spirit will live on!"
