Philmont Hymn

Lyrics

Silver on the sage, Starlit skies above, Aspen covered hills, Country that I love, Philmont, here’s to thee, Scouting paradise, Out in God’s country tonight. Wind in whispering pines, Eagles soaring high, Purple mountains rise Against an azure sky, Philmont, here’s to thee, Scouting paradise, Out in God’s country tonight.

Comments

Philmont for those of you who don’t know is the high adventure base in New Mexico. Hundreds of thousands of Scouts go there every year. It’s an experience unlike any other.
