Verse 1 Now the war is all but over,
And the guns all silent fall,
Let’s build a land that’s fit for heroes –
Victory for all.
Children join in the celebrations,
Raise on high the union jack.
Let’s fill the streets with flags and banners
Now the boys are back.
Below a sunlit sky, where only bluebirds fly, we’ll start anew,
For the whole world is standing by, to hear our battle cry,
The future lies with you.

Verse 2 Now the winds of change are blowing,
And the storms of war have passed,
Let’s harvest our fields in seeds of sunshine –
A peace that’s grown to last.
So may God bless those that have fallen,
Their lives for us they gave,
And God bless the spirit of our people –
A nation bold and brave.
Below a sunlit sky, where only bluebirds fly, we’ll start anew,
For the whole world is standing by, to hear our battle cry,
The future lies with you.
