This song keeps running in my head as I watch the remembrances on tv this week:
This is my song, O God of all the nations,
a song of peace for lands afar and mine.
This is my home, the country where my heart is;
here are my hopes, my dreams, my holy shrine;
but other hearts in other lands are beating
with hopes and dreams as true and high as mine.
(lyrics by Lloyd Stone, Georgia Harkness, music by Jean Sibelius)
