Jerusalem is the national anthem of the United Island Empires. It is sung at all offical state vistits and at sporting events.

Song

The text is as follows:

And did those feet in ancient time
Walk upon Etland’s mountains green?
And was the holy Lamb of God
On Etland’s pleasant pastures seen?

And did the Countenance Divine
Shine forth upon our clouded hills?
And was Jerusalem builded here
Among these dark Satanic Hills?

Bring me my Bow of burning gold;
Bring me my Arrows of Desire;
Bring me my Spear; O clouds unfold!
Bring me my Chariot of Fire!

I will not cease from Mental Fight,
Nor shall my Sword sleep in my hand,
Till we have built Jerusalem
In Etland’s green and pleasant Land.
