<strong>The Royal Anthem: God Save the King</strong>



God save our gracious King,

Long live our noble King,

God save the King!

Send him victorious,

Happy and glorious,

Long to reign over us,

God save the King!



Not in this land alone,

But be God's mercies known,

From shore to shore!

Lord make the nations see,

That men should brothers be,

And form one family,

The wide world o'er.



From every latent foe,

From the assasins blow,

God save the King!

O'er his thine arm extend,

For freedom's sake defend,

Our father, prince, and friend,

God save the King!



Thy choicest gifts in store,

On him be pleased to pour,

Long may he reign!

May he defend our laws,

And ever give us cause,

To sing with heart and voice,

God save the King!








<p><strong>James</strong>,

By the Grace of God, King of Hanover </p><i></i></td></tr>
