In The Bonds Of Love We Meet
Hear Our Voices We Entreat
God Defend Our Free Land.
Guard Pacific's Triple Star
From The Shafts Of Strife And War
Make Her Praises Heard Afar
God Defend New Zealand.
Men Of Ev'ry Creed And Race
Gather Here Before Thy Face
Asking Thee To Bless This Place
God Defend Our Free Land.
From Dissension, Envy, Hate
And Corruption Guard Our State
Make Our Country Good And Great
God Defend New Zealand.
Peace not war shall be our boast
But should foe assail our coast
Make us then a mighty host
God defend our free land.
Lord of battles in they might
Put our enemies to flight
Let our cause be just and right
God defend New Zealand.
Let Our Hope For Thee Increase
May Thy Blessing Never Cease
Give Us Plenty, Give Us Peace
God Defend Our Free Land.
From Dishonour And From Shame
Guard Our Country's Spotless Name
Crown Her With Immortal Fame
God Defend New Zealand.
May Our Mountains Ever Be
Freedom's Ramparts On The Sea
Make Us Faithful Unto Thee
God Defend Our Free Land.
Guide Her In The Nations Van
Preaching Love And Truth To Man
Working Out Thy Glorious Plan
God Defend New Zealand.
