Lyrics
[edit]- Beautiful Nebraska,
- Peaceful prairie land.
- Laced with many rivers,
- And the hills of sand.
- Dark green valleys
- Cradled in the earth.
- Rain and sunshine
- Bring abundant birth.
- Beautiful Nebraska,
- As you look around,
- you will find a rainbow
- Reaching to the ground.
- All these wonders
- By the Master's hand,
- Beautiful Nebraska land.
- We are so proud of this state where we live.
- There is no place that has so much to give.
- Beautiful Nebraska,
- As you look around,
- You will find a rainbow
- Reaching to the ground.
- All these wonders
- By the Master's hand,
- Beautiful Nebraska land.
