Red is for danger the colour of blood.
It's there on a battlefield in trenches of mud.
A red cross painted on a wagon,
for those that are injured and those that have gone.
Red is the rose that bloom's in June,
a patriotic flower when she's at full bloom.
Red is on our flag it binds us together.
Will fight for freedom and fail you never.
White is the snow that covers the ridge,
and white is the stone, that is built of a bridge.
White is the sheet that covers a bed,
and one to be laid out on, when you are dead
It's Christ own colour, and that makes it pure
and a holy colour that we all can endure.
White is on our flag it binds us together.
We will fight for freedom and fail you never.
Blue is for beauty it surrounds us all.
It's the sea and the sky, it's built wall to wall.
It'a a colour that a bride may take on her day,
it's also the colour that nature does not delay.
It is also our heaven, where we all want to be
flying our flag in the land of the free.
Blue is on our flag it binds us together.
We will fight for our freedom and fail you never.
Our Union Jack
