There's
a land where the mountains
are nameless,
And the rivers all run God knows where;
There are lives that are erring and aimless,
And deaths that just hang by a hair;
There are hardships that nobody reckons;
There are valleys unpeopled and still;
There's a land - oh, it beckons and beckons,
And I want to go back - and I will.
There's gold, and it's haunting and haunting;
It's luring me on as of old;
Yet it isn't the gold that I'm wanting
So much as just finding the gold,
It's the great, big, broad land 'way up yonder,
It's the forests where silence has
lease;
It's the beauty that thrills me with wonder,
It's the stillness that fills me with
peace.
