[Chorus]
England may keep the faith
For what's been done and said
We know their dreams enough to know
They dreamed and they are dead
England may keep the faith
For what's been done and said
We know their dreams enough to know
They dreamed and they are dead
[Post-Chorus]
Too long, too long a sacrifice
Can make a cold stone of the heart
But when will it suffice?
[Verse 1]
That is Heaven's part, our part
To name the name upon the name
Like a mother names her babe
When rest at last has come
On limbs that have run wild
What is it but nightfall?
Oh no, not night but a death
And a needless death after all
[Chorus]
And England may keep the faith
For what's been done and said
We know their dreams enough to know
They dreamed and they are dead
England may keep the faith
For what's been done and said
We know their dreams enough to know
They dreamed and they are dead
England may keep the faith
For what's been done and said
We know their dreams enough to know
They dreamed and they are dead
[Post-Chorus]
Too long, too long a sacrifice
Can make a cold stone of the heart
But when will it suffice?
[Verse 1]
That is Heaven's part, our part
To name the name upon the name
Like a mother names her babe
When rest at last has come
On limbs that have run wild
What is it but nightfall?
Oh no, not night but a death
And a needless death after all
[Chorus]
And England may keep the faith
For what's been done and said
We know their dreams enough to know
They dreamed and they are dead
