Take not thy thunder from us, But take away our pride. 2 From all that terror teaches, From lies of tongue and pen, From all the easy speeches That comfort cruel men, From sale and profanation Of honor, and the sword, From sleep, and from damnation, Deliver us, good Lord! 3 Tie in a living tether The prince and priest and thrall; Bind all our lives together; Smite us, and save us all; In ire and exultation, Aflame with faith, and free, Lift up a living nation, A single sword to thee.
