By thy strong soul of manhood firm and free, 
  
By thy high deeds of honour not surpassed, 
 
By all the valours that are yet to be, 
 
England, stand fast! 
  
  
England, stand fast! We made the brave man's choice. 
  
We staked our all upon the single cast. 
  
Winning or dying, let the heart rejoice: 
  
England, stand fast! 
  
  
England, one soul of steel, one heart of oak, 
  
One voice of silver, sound thy trumpet-blast 
  
Pass round the watchword through the battle-smoke; 
  
England, stand fast!
