O Canada (Revised)
Posted: July 1, 2026
Celebrating Canada Day with new lyrics for its national anthem…
O Canada,
today we sing your praise.
Siblings are we
though we’ve gone separate ways.
We celebrate
our common past
and recognize our role
pursuing peace
at any cost
while justice is our goal.
Siblings and friends,
bonded by love,
O Canada we are one family.
O Canada we are one family.>/p?
** As a proud American who loves our neighbors to the north, I wrote these lyrics as a Canada Day gift to my Canadian relatives.
