Official Song of theState of West Virginia West
Virginia Hills Words by Mrs. Ellen King,Music
by H. E. Engle (First verse) 1. Oh, the West
Virginia hills! How majestic and how grand,With
their summits bathed in glory, Like our Prince
Immanuel's Land!Is it any wonder then, That my
heart with rapture thrills,As I stand once more
with loved ones On those West Virginia
hills? CHORUS Oh, the hills, beautiful hills,
How I love those West Virginia hills! If o'er
sea o'er land I roam, Still I'll think of happy
home,And my friends among the West Virginia
hills.
