205. O God of love, O King of peace

1 O God of love, O King of peace,
Make wars thro'out the world to cease,
The wrath of sinful man restrain,
Give peace, O God, give peace again.

2 Remember, Lord, Thy works of old,
The wonders that our father told;
Remember not our sin's dark stain,
Give peace, O God, give peace again.

3 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!

4 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!
