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 tribute pay,

And thy salvation own.



Let diff'ring nations join

To celebrate thy fame;

Let all the world, O Lord, combine

To praise thy glorious name.



O let them shout and sing

With joy and pious mirth;

For thou, the righteous Judge and King,

Shalt govern all the earth.
