Anthem Lyrics

Anthem - John Owen-Jones

Written by:Tim Rice/Ulvaeus/Andersson

 

No man no madness

 

Though their sad

Power may prevail

 

Can possess conquer

My country's heart

 

They rise to fail

 

She is eternal

 

Long before nation's

Lines were drawn

 

When no flags flew

When no armies stood

My land was born

 

And you ask me why

I love her

 

Through wars

Death and despair

 

She is the constant

 

We who don't care

 

And you wonder will

I leave her but how

 

I cross over borders but

I'm still there now

 

How can I leave her

Where would I start

 

Let man's petty nations

Tear themselves apart

 

My land's only borders

 

Lie around my heart
