The prayer and pledge in our national anthem are an inspiration for Canadians. They also remind Canadian Christians to ask God to bless our country, encouraging us to work toward that goal, too. May God bless Canada!
And, if you live in another country, may these verses of our anthem guide your prayers for your native land today.
O Canada, our home and native land!
True patriot love in all our sons command.
With glowing hearts we see thee rise the true north strong and free!
From far and wide O Canada we stand on guard for thee.
God keep our land glorious and free!
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee!
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee!
Ruler Supreme, Who hearest humble prayer
Hold our dominion in Thy loving care.
Help us to find O God in Thee a lasting rich reward,
As, waiting for the better day, we ever stand on guard.
God keep our land glorious and free!
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee!
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee!
