CANADA FIRST

LAND OF OPPORTUNITY
OH LAND OF THE FREE
CHOSEN BY OUR FATHERS
OUR LAND OF DESTINY
YOU HAVE MADE ME WHAT I AM
YOU'VE GIVEN ALL TO ME
I WILL ALWAYS SING YOUR PRAISE
TO ME YOU'LL ALWAYS BE

CANADA FIRST CANADA FIRST
WE MUST THINK OF CANADA FIRST
WHETHER BY BIRTH OR
WHETHER BY CHOICE
WE MUST LEARN TO SING WITH ONE VOICE
CANADA FIRST CANADA FIRST
WE MUST THINK OF CANADA FIRST

LAND OF WONDROUS CULTURES
LAND OF THE MAPLE TREE
THE RICHNESS OF OUR HERITAGE
SHINES FROM SEA TO SEA
THE STRENGTH OF OUR NATION
LIES IN DIVERSITY
IN OUR TOILS WE WAVE OUR FLAG
AND UPHOLD DEMOCRACY

LAND OF OPPORTUNITY
OH LAND OF THE FREE
OUR FAITH WILL NEVER WAVER
WE BELIEVE IN UNITY
THE GREATNESS OF THIS COUNTRY
BEATS WITHIN EACH HEART
THE BONDS THAT TIE OUR PEOPLE
WILL NEVER BE TORN APART
