"Old New Hampshire" is the regional anthem of the U.S. state of New Hampshire. The lyrics were written by Dr. John F. Holmes and music composed by Maurice Hoffmann in 1926. It was chosen to be the "official" state song first in 1949, then again in 1977, by the State Song Selection Board. New Hampshire has nine "honorary" state songs and no other official songs. #newhampshirestateanthem #songofnewhampshire #nhstatesong
