Lord, Thou hast great­ly blessed our land,
Thou hast brought back our cap­tive band,
Thy par­don­ing grace has made us free
And co­vered our ini­qui­ty.

O Thou, who in a for­mer day
Didst turn Thy dread­ful wrath away,
In grace Thy peo­ple, Lord, re­turn,
And let Thy wrath no long­er burn.

O will Thine an­ger ne­ver cease,
Forever shall Thy wrath in­crease?
Receive and quick­en us once more,
And Thy sal­va­tion’s joy re­store.

To us Thy mer­cy now af­ford
And show us Thy sal­va­tion, Lord;
Yea, Thou wilt an­swer us in peace,
If from our fol­ly we will cease.

The Lord’s sal­va­tion will ap­pear
To men of faith and god­ly fear,
And glo­ry in our land shall dwell
When we shall heed God’s pre­cepts well.

Now truth agrees with mer­cy mild,
Now law and peace are re­con­ciled;
Behold the truth from earth arise,
With jus­tice shin­ing from the skies.

The Lord will send His bless­ing down,
And har­vests all our land shall crown;
Before Him right­eous­ness abides,
And in His foot­steps our feet He guides.
