"Come Ye Blessed" is a territorial song of the British overseas territory of the Pitcairn Islands, and is the official territorial song of the Australian territory of Norfolk Island and is sung at most island events.
The lyrics are taken from the Gospel of Matthew, chapter 25, verses 34–36 and 40.[1] [2] The music was composed by John Prindle Scott (1877–1932) and published in 1917.[3]
It is also known as the "Pitcairn Anthem" in Norfolk Island, suggesting it may have been already in use and brought by Pitcairn Islanders upon their arrival in 1856.[4]
"God Save the King" remains the official national and royal anthem of the Pitcairn Islands and the official royal anthem of Norfolk Island.
