God save our gracious Queen! Long live our noble Queen! God save the Queen! Send her victorious, Happy and glorious, Long to reign over us: God save the Queen!
O Lord our God arise, Scatter her enemies, And make them fall: Confound their politics, Frustrate their knavish tricks, On Thee our hopes we fix: God save us all.
Our loved Dominion bless With peace and happiness From shore to shore; And let our Empire be Loyal, united, free, True to herself and Thee For evermore.
Thy choicest gifts in store, On her be pleased to pour; Long may she reign: May she defend our laws, And ever give us cause, To sing with heart and voice, God save the Queen!
>"Liberty is not for me I know my rightful place, upon my knees before our King whom God enthroned with grace." >"A godless slave of liberty deserves just what he gets. Their livestock and their unborn brats will feel our bayonets."
Lyrics from Canadian (then British) song about the War of 1812 against the U.S.
