Lyrics
From the brick row homes to the marsh at dawn
A fairy cut silver where the tide rolls on
In Maryland rooms where the quiet lights hum
Skilled hands keep watch on the work to come
With a steady eye and a patient care
They carry hope through the bay
Maryland,
Maryland, watch the Chesapeake blue
Biomedical technicians are working for you
From Baltimore Harbor to towns down the shore
Keeping lives connected, opening every door
Oh, Maryland,
Maryland, let the whole bay sing
For the hands behind healing, the care
they bring
They read every measure
Check every line Guarding the answers
One test at a time
While crab boats drive past the evening pier
They serve every neighbor
Both far and near
No trumpet announcing the good they do,
but families feel it when the results come through.
Maryland, Maryland, watch the Chesapeake blue.
Biomedical technicians are working for you.
From Annapolis lights to the eastern shore, keeping lives
connected,
opening every door.
Maryland,
Maryland, let the whole
Bay sing
for the hands behind healing.
The care they bring
A lighthouse flakes by the mouth of the bay
Guiding the night toward a brighter day
And under that beam
Through the calm and the storm
Community care keeps a promise warm
Maryland, Maryland, watch the Chesapeake blue
Biomedical technicians are working for you
From the western hills to the waterline
Their careful work helps the community shine
Maryland, Maryland, let the whole place sing for the hands
behind healing,
the care they bring.
Where the river meets salt and the tall grasses sway,
Maryland hearts keep watch over
the bay
