Thread Name: English National Anthem
Subject: Lyr Add: GOD SAVE THE QUEEN
For all of you, the real words to 'GOD SAVE THE QUEEN' are

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.
Oh 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.
Lord grant that Marshall 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

4.
The choice 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 hearts and voice
God save the Queen.

Then you wonder why some Scots don't like the song
