Lyrics

I
'Tis here we are pledging,[a]
With heart and with hand,[b]
๐„† Full measure of devotion
To thee, our native land. ๐„‡

II
Now all join the chorus,
Let union abide.
๐„† Across all Micronesia
Join hands on every side. ๐„‡

III
We all work together,
With heart, voice and hand,[c]
๐„† Till we have made these islands
Another promised land. ๐„‡[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]
