Lyrics

  1. Texas, our Texas
    All hail the mighty State
    Texas our Texas
    So wonderful, so great
    Largest and grandest
    Withstanding ev’ry test
    O Empire wide and glorious
    You stand supremely blest
  2. Texas, O Texas
    Your freeborn Single Star
    Sends out its radiance
    To nations near and far
    Emblem of Freedom
    It sets our hearts aglow
    With thoughts of San Jacinto
    And glorious Alamo
  3. Texas, dear Texas
    From tyrant grip now free
    Shines forth in splendor
    Your Star of Destiny
    Mother of Heroes
    We come your children true
    Proclaiming our allegiance
    Our Faith, Our Love for you
