The Rise of Deseret

[Verse] In a land of mountains high Where the heartland beats A vision formed A dream embraced In the desert sands and streets From the Salt Lake City Voices rose in unity To bring a change A new era To the land that's wild and free (Oh, yeah yeah) [Verse 2] Deseret Mighty and strong With faith as its guiding light The pioneers and saints They were ready to take flight Marching forward Spreading love Changing lives on their path Conquering the neighboring states Leaving no soul behind states Leaving no soul behind [Chorus] Across the plains and valleys wide Underneath the starry skies Together, they stood, hand in hand Building a promised land With courage in their every stride Their dreams, they did not hide A beacon of hope, in the west Deseret, forever blessed (Oh, yeah yeah) [Bridge] In the heart of every man and woman A fire burns, a purpose driven To create a place of peace and liberty Where every soul can truly be free From the Rocky Mountains to the desert sun Their legacy, it cannot be undone In unity, their strength was found In Deseret, where dreams abound [Verse 3] Now the cities gleam With the pioneers' dream Progress and tradition in a dance In every glance, a chance To remember those who came before And opened up the door For a future bright, with hope in sight In Deseret, where the heart takes flight (Oh, yeah yeah) [Outro] In a land of mountains high With the heavens close by A vision formed, a legacy born In the desert sands and streets, they adorn From the Salt Lake City, under the wide, blue sky Voices will forever unify To cherish the change, a new era to engage In the land that's wild and free, our heritage (Oh, yeah yeah)
