The world has crowned a thousand kings	A
But destiny has kept	B
Her weightiest hour of kingly power	C
To offer England's son	D
The rising bell of Progress rings	A
And Truths which long have slept	B
Like prophets strange predicting change	E
Before Time's chariot run	D
	-
The greatest Empire of the Earth	F
Old England proudly stands	G
Like arteries her Colonies	H
Reach out from sea to sea	I
She clasps all races in her girth	F
Her gaze the world commands	G
And far and wide where strong ships ride	J
The British Flag floats free	I
	-
Oh never since the stars began	K
Their round of Cosmic law	L
And souls evolved in ways unsolved	M
And kingdoms reached their prime	N
Has Destiny held out to Man	K
A gift so full of awe	O
As England's crown which she hands down	P
In this stupendous time	N
	-
This is a crucial hour when Fate	Q
Tries Monarchs as by fire	C
All rulers must be more than just	R
Men starve on bread alone	S
Old England's sense of RIGHT is great	Q
But now let her aspire	T
To feel more love and build thereof	U
An everlasting Throne	S
	-
The dreaming East awake at last	V
Is asking 'when' and 'why'	O
Wait not too long nor answer wrong	W
Nor in too stern a voice	X
Let England profit by her past	V
And with her wise reply	Y
Rouse hearts within her foster kin	Z
To hope and to rejoice	X
	-
True wealth dwells not in things we own	S
But in our USE of things	A
Who would command a conquered land	A2
Must conquer first its heart	B2
Such might as Man has never known	S
And power undreamed by kings	A
And boundless strength would come at length	C2
To one who used that art	B2
	-
For now has dawned the People's day	D2
A day of great unrest	E2
Nor king nor creed can still man's need	F2
Of time and space to grow	G2
All lands must shape a wider way	D2
For this eternal quest	E2
And Leisure yield a larger field	H2
Where work worn feet may go	G2
	-
The Universe is all a thrill	I2
With changes imminent	J2
The World in faith with bated breath	K2
Holds free the Leader's place	L2
And wise is he whose heart and will	I2
At one with Time's intent	M2
Shall open wide doors long denied	J
To MOTHERS of the race	L2
	-
On this round globe oh when and where	N2
Were fitter time and scene	O2
For Woman's soul to reach its goal	P2
Than NOW in England's realm	Q2
Was not the crown its King will wear	N2
Made glorious by its Queen	O2
And who steered straight its ship of State	Q
VICTORIA AT THE HELM	Q2
	-
Kings have been kings by accident	J2
By favour and by force	R2
But right of birth and moral worth	F
And Empires rich and broad	S2
For England's King to day are blent	S2
Like rivers on one course	R2
But ah the light falls searching white	S2
Down from the Throne of God	S2
	-
Lord of the Earth and heavenly spheres	T2
Creator of all things	A
Thou who hast wrought great worlds from naught	S2
Give strength to England's son	D
Give courage to dispel those fears	T2
That come to even kings	A
And for his creed give Love's full mead	S2
Amen Thy Will be done	D
