Battle-Hymn of the Imperium

Mine
    is the kingdom, the power, the glory, the wealth
    of Christendom, by right of birth,
    by rite of king, and citizen,
    and countryship’s decreed priv’lege;
Mine eyes
    are bright with the promises of new life
    and strange beginnings on far shores
    where none knows my name, save God and queen,
    (and where no God can find my sin…)
Mine eyes have seen
    the black forests, blacker lands, all brightened
    by blue standard, by dear red crosse.
    O heart of dear St. George, preserve
    our brave intrepid entrepreneurs!
Mine eyes have seen the glory
    of dark lands becoming bright, and clean,
    of ancient barbarity give way
    to this matchless civility;
    In light of this, who can but say:
Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the world.
