ENGLANDS VICTORY ANTHEM

• And did those feet in ancient timeWalk upon
  England's mountains green?And was the holy Lamb
  of GodOn England's pleasant pastures seen?And
  did the Countenance DivineShine forth upon our
  clouded hills?And was Jerusalem builded
  hereAmong those dark Satanic mills?Bring me my
  bow of burning goldBring me my arrows of
  desireBring me my spear O clouds,
  unfold!Bring me my chariot of fire!I will not
  cease from mental fight,Nor shall my sword sleep
  in my handTill we have built JerusalemIn
  England's green and pleasant land.
