God Save the queen!
Description
The following is the new version of the National Anthem:
God save Victoria!
Long live Victoria!
God save the Queen!
May she triumphantly
Reign o'er nation free,
Their boundless joy to be -
O Lord, our God, arise,
Scatter her enemies,
And make them fall!
Confound their politics,
Frustrate their knavish tricks,
On her our hopes we fix -
In full munificens,
Thy choicest gifts dispense -
Long may she reign!
May she defend our laws,
And evre give us cause,
To sing with heart and voice,
God save Victoria!
Long live Victoria!
God save the Queen!
May she triumphantly
Reign o'er nation free,
Their boundless joy to be -
God save the Queen!
O Lord, our God, arise,
Scatter her enemies,
And make them fall!
Confound their politics,
Frustrate their knavish tricks,
On her our hopes we fix -
God save the Queen!
In full munificens,
Thy choicest gifts dispense -
Long may she reign!
May she defend our laws,
And evre give us cause,
To sing with heart and voice,
God save the Queen!
