thou dost in us command

Restore the inclusive language of Canada's nathional anthem. Lyrics changed in 1913.

a. original - "thou dost in us command"
b. current - "in all thy sons command"
c. proposed modified original - "in all of us command"


I like #a. And never mind Diane Francis or an order of the golden fleece man, Archduke Karl Thomas Robert Maria Franziskus Georg Bahnam Habsburg-Lothringen, whose uncle Franz Ferdinand and aunt Sophie were assassinated in Sarajevo by black hand secret society and who says nationalism's not relevant well, as transnationalists, they wouldn't care.

wiki: referred to in Austria as Karl Habsburg-Lothringen, in France as Charles de Habsbourg-Lorraine, in the Czech Republic as Karel Habsbursko-Lotrinský, in Hungary as Habsburg Károly, and by his royal name as Archduke Karl of Austria
