Lyrics

Gud sign vår konge god!

Sign ham med kraft og mot

sign hjem og slott!

Lys for ham ved din Ånd,

knytt med din sterke hånd

hellige troskapsbånd

om folk og drott!

2. Høyt sverger Norges mann

hver i sitt kall, sin stand,

troskap sin drott.

Trofast i liv og død,

tapper i krig og nød,

alltid vårt Norge lød

Gud og sin drott.
