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.
Thy choicest gifts in store,On her be pleased to pour;
Long may she reign:May she defend our laws,
And ever give us causeTo sing with heart and voice
God save the Queen.With heart and voice to sing,
