CH1941, Hymn #262

Verse 1
Lord of our life, and God of our salvation,
Star of our night, and hope of every nation,
Hear and receive thy church’s supplication,
Lord God Almighty.

Verse 2
Lord, thou canst help when earthly armor faileth;
Lord, thou canst save when deadly sin assaileth;
Lord, o’er thy rock nor death nor hell prevaileth;
Grant us thy peace, Lord.

Verse 3
Peace in our hearts our evil thoughts assuaging;
Peace, in thy church, where brothers are engaging;
Peace, when the world its busy war is waging;
Send us, O Saviour.

Verse 4
Grant us thy help till foes are backward driven;
Grant them thy truth that they may be forgiven;
Grant peace on earth, and, after we have striven,
Peace in thy heaven.
