0 GOD OF EARTH AND AL TAR
(To the music of "Vve bb")
0 God of earth and altar
Bow down and hear our cry,
Our earthly rulers falter,
Our people drift and die;
The walls of gold entomb us,
The swords of scorn divide,
'l'ake not Thy thund er from us,
But take away our pride.
l
From all that terror teaches,
li'rom li es of tongue and pen,
From all th e easy s peech es
'l'ha t comfort cruel men,
From sale and profanation
Of honor and l11 e sword,
From s lee p and from damnation,
Deliver us, good Lord .
. 'l'ie in a living tether
'l'he priest and prince and thrall,
Bind all our liv es together,
Smite us and save us all;
In ire and exultation
Aflame with faith, and free,
Lift up a Ii ving · nation,
A single sword to 'l'hee.
