Various Artists - West Virginia Hills lyrics

[Verse 1] Oh the West Virginia hills How majestic and how grand With their summits bathed in glory Like our Prince Immanuel's Land Is it any wonder then that my heart with rapture thrills As I stand once more with loved ones On those West Virginia hills [Chorus] Oh the hills, beautiful hills How I love those West Virginia hills If o'er sea or land I roam still I'll think of happy home And my friends among the West Virginia hills [Verse 2] Oh the West Virginia hills where my childhood hours were pa**ed Where I often wandered lonely and the future tried to cast Many are our visions bright which the future ne'er fulfills But how sunny were my daydreams on those West Virginia hills [Chorus] Oh the hills, beautiful hills How I love those West Virginia hills If o'er sea or land I roam still I'll think of happy home And my friends among the West Virginia hills [Verse 3] Oh the West Virginia hills how unchanged they seem to stand With their summits pointed skyward to the great Almighty's Land Many changes I can see, which my heart with sadness fills But no changes can be noticed in those West Virginia hills [Chorus] Oh the hills, beautiful hills How I love those West Virginia hills If o'er sea or land I roam still I'll think of happy home And my friends among the West Virginia hills [Verse 4] Oh the West Virginia hills I must bid you now adieu In my home beyond the mountains I shall ever dream of you In the evening time of life, if my Father only wills I shall still behold the vision of those West Virginia hills [Chorus] Oh the hills, beautiful hills How I love those West Virginia hills If o'er sea or land I roam still I'll think of happy home And my friends among the West Virginia hills
