MUSIC | NEW RELEASE: GOD BLESS ALBERTA
ALBERTA FIRST
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
KOMICK.org Releases New Orchestral Anthem “God Bless Alberta” on the road to the 2025 UCP Presidential Election.
A vintage 1965–inspired analog recording celebrating love, peace, and the enduring spirit of Alberta
KOMICK.org today announces the release of “God Bless Alberta,” a sweeping new orchestral and choral anthem that pays tribute to the land, people, and enduring spirit of Alberta. Blending a natural, patriotic warmth with themes of love, peace, and resilience, the song is crafted in the lush, timeless style of mid‑1960s recordings.
“God Bless Alberta” features rich analog textures, classic arrangements, and a clear, expressive vocals. The sound is inspired by the golden age of Rodgers & Hammerstein, evoking a sense of grandeur and heartfelt simplicity.
“God bless Alberta, wide and wild and free,
Prairie winds are singing out across the wheat and trees.”
From the very first verse, “God Bless Alberta” paints a vivid portrait of the province’s landscapes and communities — from prairie wheat fields and foothills to the towering Rockies, northern forests, and shining lakes. Each verse moves through a different facet of the province: the people who work the land, the families who build their lives here, and the travelers and newcomers who find a home under Alberta’s vast skies.
The song’s recurring chorus, “God bless Alberta, strong and standing true,” anchors the piece in a message of strength, hope, and unity. The lyrics lift up:
Workers on rigs, rail lines, and ranches
Families and children looking toward the future
Those facing winter’s challenges and seasons of struggle
A reflective bridge calls for courage and guidance “when the storm clouds gather low,” ultimately pointing back to faith, freedom, and the desire to walk this land with kindness.
“With ‘God Bless Alberta’ we wanted to create something that feels both classic and honest,” said a spokesperson for KOMICK.org. “It sounds like a song that could have been recorded in 1965, but it speaks directly to the Alberta of today — its landscapes, its people, and the hope that carries them through every season.”
Musically, listeners can expect:
Orchestral arrangements with strings, brass, and woodwinds
A full choir supporting the soaring choruses
A warm, analog-style mix that feels intimate yet cinematic
A tone that is simultaneously patriotic, peaceful, and strong
The final chorus widens the lens even further, blessing Alberta “from the highest mountain to the prairie dew,” and closing with a prayer that the province would “keep shining in Your light.”
Availability
“God Bless Alberta” is being released through KOMICK.org, with the intention that it be shared at community gatherings, celebrations, remembrance events, and personal moments of reflection.
