The Lord Must Love Virginia

The light shines on Virginia
Oh Lord, don't ask me why
When I'm there I've noticed
Bright becomes the sky

Rivers swell and flow
Birds sing in the trees
And summer's heat does go
Away with summer's breeze

From the south at Norfolk
Or warm Virginia Beach
Upward then towards Richmond
Until Arlington you reach

The Lord must love Virginia
And Lord knows if that's true
The Lord is not alone
For I love it too
