Lyics

To bless thy chosen race,

In mercy, Lord, incline;

And cause the brightness of thy face

On all thy saints to shine; --



That so thy wondrous way

May through the world be known;

While distant lands their homage pay,

And thy salvation own.



Let all the nations join

To celebrate thy fame;

And all the world, O Lord, combine,

To praise thy glorious name.
