Lyrics
- O Canada! Our home, our native land
True patriot love thou dost in us command
We see thee rising fair, dear land
The True North strong and free
And stand on guard, O Canada
We stand on guard for thee
Chorus
O Canada! O Canada!
O Canada! We stand on guard for thee
O Canada! We stand on guard for thee
- O Canada! Where Pines and Maples grow
Great prairies spread and lordly rivers flow
Thou art the land, O Canada
From East to Western sea
The land of hope for all who toil
The land of liberty - O Canada! Beneath thy shining skies
May stalwart sons and gentle maidens rise
And so abide, O Canada
From East to Western sea
Where e’re thy pines and prairies are
The True North strong and free
Sung here by Vancha March:
