I To bless thy chosen race,
In mercy, Lord, incline;
And cause the brightness of thy face
On all thy saints to shine:
II That so thy wond'rous way
May thro' the world be known;
While distant lands their tribute pay,
And thy salvation own.
III Let diff'ring nations join
To celebrate thy fame;
Let all the world, O Lord, combine
To praise thy glorious name.
IV O let them shout and sing,
Dissolv'd in pious mirth:
For thou, the righteous judge and king,
Shalt govern all the earth.
