God Save the King
The official lyrics of the British Anthem
God save our gracious King,
Long live our noble King,
God save the King!
Send her victorious,
Happy and glorious,
Long to reign over us;
God save the King!
Thy choicest gifts in store
On her be pleased to pour;
Long may she reign;
May she defend our laws,
And ever give us cause
To sing with heart and voice:
God save the King!
There is no official version of the British anthem. By tradition, the monarchy recognizes two verses of the full version.
The full lyrics of the British Anthem
God save our gracious King,
Long live our noble King,
God save the King!
Send her victorious,
Happy and glorious,
Long to reign over us;
God save the King!
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 cause
To sing with heart and voice:
God save the King!
There are other verses, added in time, but never used.
