Song lyrics for Our Home, Louisiana
OUR HOME, LOUISIANA
A flickering lamp, a fire bright,
The lights are on again,
Graceful trees tell quiet tales,
And you remember then.
All our dreams head homeward, chere,
Smiles bring other smiles,
Neighbors, friends, and family join,
Together, we survive.
This is our love, This is our life,
This is our home, Louisiana,
This is our day, come what may,
This is our home.
A breaking dawn, a tender morn,
A canvas we design,
The band parades, a jester laughs,
We share momentous time.
This is our love, This is our life,
This is our home, Louisiana,
This is our day, come what may,
This is our home.
Church bells ring, the children sing,
My sunshine, you are mine,
Hello old friend, I knew you when,
Together, we’ll unwind.
May all our prayers be noble now,
May all our work be pure,
May we be thankful once again,
Together, we endure.
This is our love, This is our life,
This is our home, Louisiana,
This is our day, come what may,
This is our home.
This is our love, This is our life,
This is our home, Louisiana,
This is our day, come what may,
This is our home.
