Ewan our Most Sovereign Lord (1977)

Words by David Appleton, to the tune of Never Weather-Beaten Sail - (Thomas Campion)


Ewan our most sovereign LorD,
Whom we must all appeasE
Almost mighty one, do thoU
Now hear our humble pleaS,
Surely over twenty years,
Thou hast made the tower thinE,
And the Eldon Place AnneX
For ever is thy shrine

For the fifth quinquenniuM
O sing AlleluiA,
Reigning Senior Pro-V.C.
Don't shun our loud hurraH,
Persecute the hoi-polloI
And all who take thy name in vaiN.
Gladly sing we (3) gloriA,
Eternal be thy reign
