With glowing hearts we see thee rise, The true North strong and free! From far and wide, O Canada, We stand on guard for thee. God keep our land glorious and free! O Canada, we stand on guard for thee. O Canada, we stand on guard for thee. O Canada! Where pines and maples grow, Great prairies spread And lordly rivers flow, How dear to us thy broad domain, From East to Western Sea, Thou land of hope, for all who toil! Thou True North strong and free! God keep our land Glorious and free! O Canada! We stand on guard for thee! O Canada! We stand on guard for thee! O Canada! Beneath thy shining skies May stalwart sons And gentle maidens rise, To keep thee steadfast through the years From East to Western Sea, Our own beloved native land! Our True North strong and free! God keep our land, Glorious and free! O Canada! We stand on guard for thee! O Canada! We stand on guard for thee! Ruler Supreme, who hearest humble prayer, Hold our Dominion in Thy loving care. Help us to find, O God, in Thee A lasting, rich reward, As waiting for the Better Day We ever stand on guard. O Canada! We stand on guard for thee! O Canada! We stand on guard for thee! French Lyrics: O Canada! Terre de nos aïeux, Ton front est ceint de fleurons glorieux! Car ton bras sait porter l'épée, Il sait porter la croix! Ton histoire est une épopée Des plus brillants exploits. Et ta valeur, de foi trempée, Protégera nos foyers et nos droits. Protégera nos foyers et nos droits. Sous l'oeil de Dieu, près du fleuve géant, Le Canadien grandit en espérant. Il est né d'une race fièrce, Beni fut son berceau. Le ciel a marqué sa carrière Dans ce monde nouveau. Toujours guidé par sa lumière, Il gardera l'honneur de son drappeau, Il gardera l'honneur de son drapeau. De son patron, précurseur du vrai Dieu, Il porte au front l'auréole de feu. Ennemi de la tyrannie Main plein de loyauté, Il veut garder dans l'harmonie Sa fière liberté; Et par l'effort de son genie, Sur notre sol asseoir la vérité, Sur notre sol asseoir la vérité. Amour sacré du trône et de l'autel, Remplis nos coeurs de ton souffle immortel! Parmi les races étrangères, Notre guide est la loi: Sachons être un peuple de frères, Sous le joug de la foi. Et répétons, comme nos pères, La cri vainqueur: "Pour le Christ et le roi," La cri vainqueur: "Pour le Christ et le roi," God Save The Queen Listen to God Save The Queen God Save The Queen is Canada's royal anthem. It was composed by Henry Carey and first sung by him in 1740. The lyrics are as follows: English Lyrics: 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 over 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! French Lyrics: Dieu protège la reine De sa main souveraine! Vive la reine! Qu'un règne glorieux, Long et victorieux Rende son peuple heureux. Vive la reine! The Maple Leaf Forever Listen to The Maple Leaf Forever The Maple Leaf Forever is a patriotic song written by Alexander Muir in October 1867. The lyrics are as follows: English Lyrics: In days of yore, from Britain's shore, Wolfe, the dauntless hero, came And planted firm Britannia's flag On Canada's fair domain. Here may it wave, our boast and pride, And joined in love together, The Thistle, Shamrock, Rose entwined The Maple Leaf forever! The Maple Leaf, our emblem dear, The Maple Leaf forever; God save our Queen, and Heaven bless The Maple Leaf forever. At Queenston Heights and Lundy's Lane Our brave fathers side by side For freedom's home and loved ones dear, Firmly stood and nobly died. And so their rights which they maintained, We swear to yield them never. Our watchword ever more shall be The Maple Leaf Forever The Maple Leaf, our emblem dear, The Maple Leaf forever; God save our Queen, and Heaven bless The Maple Leaf forever. Our fair Dominion now extends From Cape Race to Nootka Sound May peace forever be our lot And plenty a store abound And may those ties of love be ours Which discord cannot sever And flourish green for freedom's home The Maple Leaf Forever The Maple Leaf, our emblem dear, The Maple Leaf forever; God save our Queen, and Heaven bless The Maple Leaf forever.   Canada4Life Shirts On Sale Now Recent Forum Topics What Men Want From Women...
