  • Land of Hope and Glory
    Mother of the Free
    How shall we extol thee
    Who are born of thee?
    Wider still, and wider
    Shall thy bounds be set;
    God, who made thee mighty
    Make thee mightier yet!

    Dear Land of Hope, thy hope is crowned
    God make thee mightier yet!
    On Sov'ran brows, beloved, renowned
    Once more thy crown is set
    Thine equal laws, by Freedom gained
    Have ruled thee well and long;
    By Freedom gained, by Truth maintained
    Thine Empire shall be strong

    Thy fame is ancient as the days
    As Ocean large and wide:
    A pride that dares, and heeds not praise
    A stern and silent pride
    Not that false joy that dreams content
    With what our sires have won;
    The blood a hero sire hath spent
    Still nerves a hero son Lyrics licensed and provided by LyricFind
