Text 1. 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!
2. O Lord our God arise, Scatter his enemies And make them fall; Confound their politics, Frustrate their knavish tricks, On Thee our hopes we fix, God save us all!
3. Thy choicest gifts in store On his 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!
4. 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 over.
5. From every latent foe, From the assassins blow, God save the King! O'er his thine arm extend, For Britain's sake defend, Our mother, prince, and friend, God save the King!
6. Lord grant that Marshal Wade May by thy mighty aid Victory bring. May he sedition hush, And like a torrent rush, Rebellious Scots to crush. God save the King!
