God save the King

 

GOD SAVE OUR GRACIOUS KING. (It
          seems
     The Church is full of bygone dreams.)

     LONG LIVE OUR NOBLE KING. (My own,
     'Tis hard to stand here all alone.)

     GOD SAVE THE KING. (But, sweetheart, you
     Were always brave to dare and do.)

     SEND HIM VICTORIOUS. (For then,
     My darling will come home again!)

     HAPPY AND GLORIOUS ('Twill be
     Like Heaven to him—and what to me?)

     LONG TO REIGN OVER US. (My dear!
     And we'd been wedded one short year!)

     GOD SAVE OUR KING. (And Lord, I pray
     Keep MY King safe this very day.)

     Forgive us, thou—great England's kingly
          King
     That thus do women National Anthems
          sing.
