{{center block/s}} {{overfloat left|1}}{{sc|God}} save our gracious King,

Long live our noble King,

{{em}}God save the King:

Send him victorious,

Happy and glorious,

Long to reign over us:

{{em}}God save the King.

{{c|Optional.}} {{overfloat left|{{overfloat left|{{brace2|8|l}}}}2}}O Lord our God, arise, {{overfloat right|{{brace2|8|r}}}} Scatter his enemies,

{{em}}And make them fall:

Confound their politics;

Frustrate their knavish tricks,

On Thee our hopes we fix;

{{em}}God save us all.

{{overfloat left|3}}Thy choicest gifts in store

On him be pleased to pour;

{{em}}Long may he reign.

May he defend our laws,

And ever give us cause

To sing with heart and voice,

{{em}}God save the King. Amen.

{{overfloat left|4}}With England's crown to-day

We hail our King, and pray

{{em}}God save the King.

Guide him in happiness,

Guard him in storm and stress,

Then in Thy Kingdom bless

{{em}}And crown our King. {{center block/e}} {{nop}} {{underline|COPYRIGHT, all rights strictly reserved.}}
