Lyics

THY footsteps, Lord, with joy we trace,

And mark the conquest of Thy grace,

Complete the work Thou hast begun;

And let Thy will on earth be done.



O show Thyself the Prince of peace;

Command the din of war to cease;

O bid contending nations rest,

And let Thy love rule every breast!



Thou good and wise and righteous Lord,

All move subservient to Thy word;

O soon let every nation prove

The perfect joy of Christian love!
