O God, be merciful to us, And bless us, in thy grace

O God, be merciful to us, And bless us, in thy grace

Tune: DURHAM (Ravenscroft)
Published in 1 hymnal

Representative Text

1 O God, be merciful to us,
and bless us, in thy grace;
and do thou cause to shine on us
the brightness of thy face:
2 that so thy way upon the earth
to all men may be known;
also among the nations all
thy saving health be shown.

3 Let people give thee praise, O God;
let people all thee praise.
4 O let the nations joyful be,
in songs their voices raise.
For justly thou shalt people judge,
and nations rule on earth.
5 Let people give thee praise, O God;
let all praise thee with mirth.

6 The earth her increase yielded hath;
God, our God, bless us shall.
7 God shall us bless; and of the earth
the ends shall fear him all.
