God Of Our Fathers |
|
God of our fathers, whose almighty hand |
Leads forth in beauty all the starry band |
Of shining worlds in splendor through the skies, |
Our grateful songs before thy throne arise. |
|
Thy love divine hath led us in the past; |
In this free land by thee our lot is cast. |
Be thou our Ruler, Guardian, Guide, and Stay, |
Thy word our law, thy paths our chosen way. |
|
From war's alarms, from deadly pestilence, |
Be thy strong arm our ever-sure defense. |
Thy true religion in our hearts increase. |
Thy bounteous goodness nourish us in peace. |
