  1. 1O Lord our God, arise;
  2. The cause of truth maintain;
  3. And wide o'er all the peopled world
  4. Extend her blessed reign.
  5. 2Thou Prince of Life, arise,
  6. Nor let Thy conquests cease;
  7. Far spread the glory of Thy name,
  8. And bless the earth with peace.
  9. 3Thou, Holy Ghost, arise,
  10. Expand Thy quickening power,
  11. And o'er a dark and ruined world
  12. Thy light and peace outpour.
  13. 4All men on earth, arise,
  14. To God the Saviour sing;
  15. From shore to shore, from earth to heaven,
  16. Let His high praises ring.
  17. 5Amen.
