Lyics

TO bless thy chosen race,
In mercy, Lord, incline;
And cause the brightness of thy face
On all the saints to shine.


That so thy wondrous way
May through the world be known;
While distant lands their tribute pay,
And thy salvation own.


O let them shout and sing
With joy and pious mirth;
For thou, the righteous Judge and King
Shalt govern all the earth.
