This is an excellent rendition of Canada's National Anthem. Below are the official lyrics of the first verse, followed by the second, third, and fourth stanzas, by Albert D. Watson:
Our home and native land!
True patriot love in all thy sons command.
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.
- Refrain:
- Lord of the lands, make Canada Thine own:
- Lord of the lands, make Canada Thine own!
- Almighty Love, by Thy mysterious power,
- In wisdom guide, with faith and freedom dower;
- Be ours a nation evermore
- That no oppression blights,
- Where justice rules from shore to shore,
- From lakes to northern lights.
- May love alone for wrong atone;
-
- Refrain
- Lord of the worlds, with strong eternal hand,
- Hold us in honor, truth and self-command;
- The loyal heart, the constant mind,
- The courage to be true,
- Our wide extending empire bind,
- And all the earth renew.
- Thy Name be known through every zone;
- Refrain
