- 1To bless Thy chosen race,
- In mercy, Lord, incline;
- And cause the brightness of Thy face
- On all thy saints to shine:
- 2That so Thy wondrous way
- May through the world be known;
- While distant lands their tribute pay,
- And Thy salvation own.
- 3Oh, let them shout and sing,
- With joy and pious mirth!
- For Thou, the righteous Judge and King,
- Shalt govern all the earth.
- 4Let differing nations join
- To celebrate Thy fame!
- Let all the world, O Lord, combine
- To praise Thy glorious Name!
- 5Then God upon our land
- Shall constant blessings shower;
- And all the world in awe shall stand
- Of HIs resistless power.
- 6Amen.
