Make wars throughout 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 fathers 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. Languages: English Tune Title: HESPERUS
O God of love, O King of peace
