Hymn #800: O Canada


Change to large font


1. O Canada our home and native land,
true patriot love in all our hearts command.
With glowing hearts, thy children stand,
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.

2. Almighty Love, by thy mysterious power,
in wisdom guide, with faith and freedom dower,
be ours a nation evermore
that no oppression blights,
where justice rules from shore to shore,
from lakes to northern lights.
May love alone for wrong atone;
Lord of the lands, make Canada thine own.
Lord of the lands, make Canada thine own.

1 (French). Ô Canada! Terre de nos aïeux,
ton front est ceint de fleurons glorieux.
Car ta main, de paix inspirée
sait maintenir le droit,
ton histoire est une épopée
des plus brillants exploits.
Et ta valeur, de foi trempée,
protègera nos foyers et nos droits,
protègera nos foyers et nos droits.
