| God grant from Greed or the dust of sleep or the right by a lie maintained | B |
| From all save our blood if we must we ll keep the silver and blue unstained | B |

| Through peace to prosper or war to save wherever the future runs | D |
| May God make noble and strong and brave the hearts of our father s sons | D |
