God Save

Famous quotes containing the words god and/or save:

    Behold, O God our shield, and look upon the face of thine anointed.

    For the Lord God is a sun and shield: the Lord will give grace and glory:
    Bible: Hebrew Psalm LXXXIV (l. LXXXIV, 9–11)

    Lift not thy spear against the Muses’ bower:
    The great Emathian conqueror bid spare
    The house of Pindarus, when temple and tower
    Went to the ground; and the repeated air
    Of sad Electra’s poet had the power
    To save the Athenian walls from ruin bare.
    John Milton (1608–1674)
