1 O God, show mercy to us,
and bless us in your grace,
and cause to shine upon us
the brightness of your face;
so that your way most holy
on earth may soon be known,
and unto every people
your saving grace be shown.
Let all the peoples praise you;
let all the nations sing;
in every land let praises
and songs of gladness ring.
2 For you will judge the people
in truth and righteousness,
and on the earth all nations
will your just rule confess.
Let all the peoples praise you,
let all the nations sing.
Then earth in rich abundance
to us its fruit will bring.
The LORD our God will bless us,
our God will blessing send,
and all the earth will worship
to its remotest end.
