O Canada
O Canada!
Our home and native land!
True patriot love in all thy

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
