Lyrics

I
'Tis here we are pledging,[lower-alpha 1]
With heart and with hand,[lower-alpha 2]
𝄆 Full measure of devotion
To thee, our native land. 𝄇

II
Now all join the chorus,
Let union abide.
𝄆 Across all Micronesia
Join hands on every side. 𝄇

III
We all work together,
With heart, voice and hand,[lower-alpha 3]
𝄆 Till we have made these islands
Another promised land. 𝄇[3][4]

(Full measure of devotion
To thee, our native land.
Across all Micronesia
Join hands on every side.
Till we have made these islands
Another promised land.)[5][6][7]
