::::''1.''
:O God of earth and altar, bow down and hear our cry,
:Our earthly rulers falter, our people drift and die;
:The walls of gold entomb us, the swords of scorn divide;
: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.
