GOD SAVE OUR GRACIOUS EUROPE

Give it 5 years and Wembley will by law have to sing this (or else). It need not be this way. Certain people can very easily refuse to sign treaties and laws ( but for whatever reason they do).

God save our gracious Europe,
Long live our noble Europe,
God save our Europe!
Send her victorious,
Happy and Glorious,
Long to reign over us;
God save our Europe!

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,
Oh, 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 our Europe!

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 our Europe!
O'er her thine arm extend,
For Europe's sake defend,
Our mother, prince, and friend,
God save our Europe!
