1 O God, to us show mercy,
And bless us n Thy grace;
Cause Thou to shine upon us
The brightness of Thy face;
That so Thy way most holy
On earth may soon be known,
And unto every people
Thy saving grace be shown.
2 O God, let peoples praise Thee;
Let all the people sing;
Let nations now be joyful;
Let songs of gladness ring;
For Thou wilt judge the peoples
In truth and righteousness;
And o'er the earth shall nations
Thy leadership confess.
3 O God, let peoples praise Thee;
Let all the people sing;
For earth in rich abundance
To us her fruit will bring.
God, our own God, will bless us;
Yea, God will blessing send;
And all the earth shall fear Him
To its remotest end.
