0 GOD OF EARTH AND AL TAR
(To the music of "Webb")
0 God of earth and a ltar
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,
Take not Thy thund er from us,
But take aw a y our pride.
l~rom all that te rror L
eaches,
From lies of tongue and peu,
From all th e easy speeches
That comfort cru el men,
From sale and profanation
Of honor and theswo~,
From slee p and from damnation,
Deliver us, good Lord.
Ti e in a living tether
The pri est and prince and thrall,
Bind all our liv es togeth er,
Smite us and save us all;
In ire and exultation
Aflam e with faith, and free,
Lif t up a living nation,
A s ingl e sword to Thee.
- G. IC Chesterton.
