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     ​

This is my song
To honour the Few

​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

Strong in faith believer

Sung to  Onward Christian Soldiers 

Strong in faith believer
Fear not the unknown
One who goes before us
Him we can believe
Christ our Royal Captain
Bid in him arise
Take him at his calling 
Be the chosen few.

Christian in thy service
Christ calls thee to faith
This is perfect freedom
Living in his grace
