Lyics

Lord of eternal truth and might!

Ruler of nature's changing scheme!

Who dost bring forth the morning light,

And temper noon's effulgent beam:



Quench thou in us the flames of strife,

And bid the heat of passion cease;

From perils guard our feeble life,

And keep our souls in perfect peace.
