  1. God save our gracious Queen,

    Long live our noble Queen,

    God save the Queen:

    Send her victorious,

    Happy and glorious,

    Long to reign over us:

    God save the Queen.

    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 Queen.*

    Note: When the monarch of the time is male, beyond the other alterations mentioned above, the last line of the third verse is changed to "with heart and voice to sing/ God Save the King".


  2. God Save the Queen! The Fascist Regime! They made you a moron, potential H-Bomb!

  4. Here's the entire anthem:

    God save our gracious Queen,

    Long live our noble Queen,

    God save the Queen:

    Send her victorious,

    Happy and glorious,

    Long to reign over us:

    God save the Queen.

    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 Queen.

    If the monarch is a king,just change queen to king!

  5. There's actually six verses:

    1. God save our gracious Queen,

    Long live our noble Queen,

    God save the Queen!

    Send her victorious,

    Happy and glorious,

    Long to reign over us;

    God save the Queen!

    2. 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!

    3. 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 Queen!

    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 Queen!

    O'er her thine arm extend,

    For Britain's sake defend,

    Our mother, prince, and friend,

    God save the Queen!

    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 Queen!
