When noble Spire walked in my court, I read of [D] [G] ancient _ freemen,

And then I prayed, and I at my feet, [C] I read _ _ [G] Arzurentum's ways,
[C] And Ireland, land of [D] Golden Spring, [G] A nation _ [D] [G] once again.
Here we go!
A nation [C] once again, [Am] A nation [D] once _ again,

If [Em] this were true, [G] that _ freedom's act, [C] And [D] service high [G] and holy,
For people feigned by feelings sad, [C] And passions vain [D] or _ lowly,
For freedom comes from God's right hand, [C] And leads a [G] godly strain,
[C] And righteous men [G] must make [D] our land, [G] A nation [D] once [G] again. _

Let's sing it, we can sing it!
