Text:God in mercy, cause Thy face

76. God in mercy, cause Thy face

1 God, in mercy, cause Thy face
Graciously on us to shine!
Make Thy way, Thy saving grace,
Known through earth by power divine.

2 Let the people praise Thee, Lord!
Thee let all the people bless!
Nations sound their joys abroad,
Ruled by Thee in righteousness.

3 Let the people praise Thee, Lord!
All the people join to sing!
Earth (Thy blessings on her poured,)
Then a rich increase shall bring.

4 God on us will blessings pour,
Our own God His people bless:
Then shall all the earth adore,
All mankind His name confess.
