God Save The Queen

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.

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 o'er.

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!

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!

Ulster Won't Die

Come all ye young brethren
And listen to me
And pledge that your country
Stays loyal and free
And step proudly forth
Each twelfth of July
And let Dublin know now
That Ulster won’t die
And if you love your country
You’ll stand up and cry
That the times they are a changing.

For the people in Dublin
With their gold, white and green
They don’t want the Border
They don’t want the Queen
But the Queen and the Border
We’ll never deny
We’ll fight to defend them
So Ulster won’t die
And if you love your country
You’ll stand up and cry
That the times they are a changing.

Now Armagh and Antrim
Londonderry and Down
Tyrone and Fermanagh
Remain true to the crown
They remember Lord Carson
His famous reply
No home rule for Ireland
And Ulster won’t die
And if you love your country
You’ll stand up and cry
That the times they are a changing.

For the red hand of Ulster
The red, white and blue
Are the symbols of freedom
For me and for you
Let your watch word be courage
Let your Union Jack fly
For we won’t surrender
And Ulster won’t die,
And if you love your country
You’ll stand up and cry
That the times they are a changing.
