What is Ohio state song?

The official state song of Ohio is titled "Beautiful Ohio". It was written by Ballard MacDonald and composed by Robert A. King in 1918, and was designated as the state song by the Ohio General Assembly in 1969. The song pays homage to the natural beauty and landscapes of Ohio, expressing admiration and gratitude for the state. Here are the lyrics to the first and chorus verse:

Verse 1

Ohio, our mother, give me your hand,

I am one of your children, forever at your command.

In the twilight of the morning, when the shadows are drawn,

I will sing to you your own sweet song, Beautiful Ohio.

Chorus

Beautiful Ohio, in the heart of the land,

With the sun above, and the fertile fields so grand.

Beautiful Ohio, flowing wide and free,

I love your waters and your shores so endlessly.
