Battle of Britain Anthem
Sung to Hubert Parry’s Jerusalem
And shall our skies, this foe reprove
The threat to all our graces, spurn Upon the Few our hopes depend This Battle must be fought and won They lingered not at their behest Against the might of Nazi Rule Was ever so much gained and won |

Blessed be our nation Sung to Elgar’s Land of hope and glory Verse 1 Blessed be our nation, wrought by heaven’s decree Casting out injustice, chastened with liberty Wide the consecration of their works and fame Where the sun didst flourish never known to set Left to us to cherish, be it not in vain. Verse 3 Spirit of our fathers, lend thy grace herein We who now behold thee, mighty in thy works Gathered from earth’s bounty, shall thy works extend Armed with faith and courage facing the unknown Praising our Creator, worthy of mightier works. Composed by Joseph 77 |
