puellapaschalis Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 [quote name='OLAM Dad' post='1028913' date='Jul 22 2006, 11:39 PM'] Land of Hope and Glory? Really? I've not heard that before. [/quote] Land of hope and glory, Mother of the free, how shall we extol thee, who are born of thee? Wider still and wider shall thy bounds be set, God, who made thee mighty, make thee mightier yet! God, who made thee mighty, make thee mightier yet! Generally sung on occasions of informal, civilised and rowdy patriotism. A good example is the last night of the Proms. Occasions when the Queen's present don't count because they're neither formal nor rowdy (most of the time). International football matches don't count because they're not civilised.
