Onward and upward ever, forward and on, and on; hail to thee, Land of the Heroes, my Oregon. Land of the rose and sunshine, land of the summer's breeze; laden with health and vigor, fresh from the western seas. Blest by the blood of martyrs, land of the setting sun; hail to thee, Land of Promise, my Oregon. Lyrics by J.A. Buchanan If you would like to hear the music for this song click here.
