O God of love, O King of peace, Make wars throughout the world to cease: The wrath of sinful man restrain, Give peace, O God, give peace again! Remember, Lord, Thy works of old, The wonders that our fathers told; Remember not our sin's dark stain, Give peace, O God, give peace again! Whom shall we trust but Thee, O Lord? Where rest but on Thy faithful word? None ever called on Thee in vain, Give peace, O God, give peace again! Where saints and angels dwell above, All hearts are knit in holy love; O bind us in that heavenly chain! Give peace, O God, give peace again! |
