george frideric handel - birthday ode for queen anne lyrics

Loading...

eternal source of light divine
with double warmth thy beams display
and with distinguish’d glory shine
to add a l+stre to this day

the day that gave great anna birth
who fix’d a lasting peace on earth

let all the winged race with joy
their wonted homage sweetly pay
whilst tow’ring in the azure sky
they celebrate this happy day:
the day that gave great anna birth
who fix’d a lasting peace on earth

let flocks and herds their fear forget
lions and wolves refuse their prey
and all in friendly consort meet
made glad by this propitious day
the day that gave great anna birth
who fix’d a lasting peace on earth

let rolling streams their gladness show
with gentle murmurs whilst they play
and in their wild meanders flow
rejoicing in this blessed day
the day that gave great anna birth
who fix’d a lasting peace on earth
kind health descends on downy wings;
angels conduct her on the way
t’our glorious queen new life she brings
and swells our joys upon this day

the day that gave great anna birth
who fix’d a lasting peace on earth

let envy then conceal her head
and blasted faction glide away
no more her hissing tongues we’ll dread
secure in this auspicious day
the day that gave great anna birth
who fix’d a lasting peace on earth

united nations shall combine
to distant climes the sound convey
that anna’s actions are divine
and this the most important day!
the day that gave great anna birth
who fix’d a lasting peace on earth
