English Lyrics
- My island (heart) lies o'er the ocean;
- Like a wreath of flowers upon the sea;
- With a (the) light of Maker from far above;
- Shining the with the brilliance of rays of life;
- Our Father's wondrous creation;
- Bequeathed to us, our Motherland;
- I'll never leave my dear home sweet home;
- God of our forefathers protect and bless forever Marshall Islands.

Famous quotes containing the words english and/or lyrics:
“To write or even speak English is not a science but an art. There are no reliable words.... Whoever writes English is involved in a struggle that never lets up even for a sentence. He is struggling against vagueness, against obscurity, against the lure of the decorative adjective, against the encroachment of Latin and Greek, and, above all, against the worn-out phrases and dead metaphors with which the language is cluttered up.”
—George Orwell (1903–1950)
“Chad and I always look for deeper meanings; we can analyze Beastie Boys lyrics for hours.”
—Amy Stewart (b. 1975)
