Lyrics
Andrew Davis - Rule Britannia
Rule Britannia Britannia
rule the waves
Britons never never never shall be slaves.
Britons never never never shall be slaves.
When Britain first at
heaven's command,
Arose from out the azure main,
This was the charter of the land,
And Guardian Angels sang this strain:.
Arose from out the azure main,
This was the charter of the land,
And Guardian Angels sang this strain:.
The nations not so blest as
thee
Must in their turn to tyrants fall,
While thou shalt flourish great and free:
The dread and envy of them all.
Must in their turn to tyrants fall,
While thou shalt flourish great and free:
The dread and envy of them all.
Still more majestic shalt
thou rise,
More dreadful from each foreign stroke,
As the loud blast that tears the skies
Serves but to root thy native oak.
More dreadful from each foreign stroke,
As the loud blast that tears the skies
Serves but to root thy native oak.
Thee haughty tyrants ne'er
shall tame;
All their attempts to bend thee down
Will but arouse thy generous flame,
But work their woe and thy renown.
All their attempts to bend thee down
Will but arouse thy generous flame,
But work their woe and thy renown.
To thee belongs the rural
reign;
Thy cities shall with commerce shine;
All thine shall be the subject main,
And every shore it circles thine.
Thy cities shall with commerce shine;
All thine shall be the subject main,
And every shore it circles thine.
The Muses still with freedom
found,
Shall to thy happy coasts repair.
Blest isle with matchless beauty crowned,
And manly hearts to guard the fair.
Shall to thy happy coasts repair.
Blest isle with matchless beauty crowned,
And manly hearts to guard the fair.
Rule Britannia Britannia
rule the waves
Britons never never never shall be slaves.
Britons never never never shall be slaves.
