GODFREY 1 When war's alarm rang wildly out And Boers their valour vaunted Few guessed the size of Britain's task Or that her sons were wanted But loyal hearts across the seas Could wait no invitation But sped to join the mother's side 'Mid cries of exultation Chorus. Rallying round the flag, see the British Lions cubs Rallying round the flag that they love They are bound to keep it flying; Though 'mid shot and shell they're dying; They are bound to keep it flying up above. 2. They faced the foe on many a field; Their blood was freely proffered And to defend that sacred flag Canadian lives were offered. Australian, not a whit behind In danger or in glory, Stood firm around it's flapping folds All tattered, stained and gory. Chorus. Rallying round the flag, etc. 3. They've shown the world a moving sight The sons beside the mother And, for the first place in the fight Each striving with the other. Can other lands show aught like this? O! loyal sons we love you! Be ever thus and keep the flag Aye floating free above you. Chorus. Rallying round the flag, etc. Used by permission of H.H. Godfrey.
