Where brave men fought the foe of freedom, Tyranny decried, 'Til the bell of independence filled the countryside. Chorus Pennsylvania, Pennsylvania, May your future be, filled with honor everlasting as your history. Verse 2 Pennsylvania, Pennsylvania, Blessed by God's own hand, Birthplace of a mighty nation, Keystone of the land. Where first our country's flag unfolded, Freedom to proclaim, May the voices of tomorrow glorify your name. Chorus Pennsylvania, Pennsylvania, May your future be, filled with honor everlasting as your history. |
