But we would not have it said,

When you make report to our scornful foes,

That we kissed as we betrayed!

('Their webs shall not become garments, neither shall they cover themselves with their works; their works are works of iniquity, and the act of violence is in their hands.'—Isaiah lix 6)

The dark eleventh hour

Draws on and sees us sold

To every evil power

We fought against of old.

Rebellion, rapine, hate,

Oppression, wrong and greed

Are loosed to rule our fate,

By England's act and deed.

The Faith in which we stand,

The laws we made and guard,

Our honour, lives, and land
