A Nation Once Again

[Verse 1]
When boyhood's fire was in my blood
I read of ancient freemen
For Greece and Rome who bravely stood
Three hundred men and three men
And there I prayed I yet might see
Our fetters rent in twain
And Ireland, long a province be
A nation once again

[Chorus]
A nation once again
A nation once again
And Ireland, long a province be
A nation once again

[Verse 2]
It whisper'd too, that freedom's ark
And service high and holy
Would be prepared by feelings dark
And passion vain or lowly
For freedom comes from God's right hand
And needs a godly train
And righteous men must make our land
A nation once again

[Chorus]
A nation once again
A nation once again
And Ireland, long a province be
A nation once again

[Verse 3]
So as I grew from boy to man
I bent me to that bidding
My spirit of each selfish plan
And cruel passion ridding
For thus I hoped some day to aid
Oh, can such hope be vain
When my dear country should be made
A nation once again

[Chorus]
A nation once again
A nation once again
And Ireland, long a province be
A nation once again
