God the Omnipotent
God, the om-ni-po-tent! King who or-dain-est
Great winds Thy clar-ions, light-nings thy sword;
Show forth Thy pit-y on high where Thou reign-est,
Give to us peace in our time, O Lord.
God the All-mer-ci-ful! earth hath for-sa-ken
Thy ways of bles-sed-ness, slight-ed Thy word;
Bid not Thy wrath in its ter-rors a-wak-en;
Give to us peace in our time, O Lord.
God the All-right-eous One! man hath de-fied Thee;
Yet to e-ter-ni-ty stand-eth Thy word,
False-hood and wrong shall not tar-ry bes-ide Thee;
Give to us peace in our time, O Lord.
God the All-wise! by the fire of thy chas-ten-ing,
Earth shall to free-dom and truth be re-stored;
Through the thick dark-ness Thy king-dom is has-ten-ing;
Thou wilt give peace in Thy time, O Lord.
So shall Thy chil-dren, with thank-ful de-vo-tion,
Praise Him Who saved them from per-il and sword,
Sing-ing in cho-rus from o-cean to o-cean,
Peace to the na-tions, and praise to the Lord.
