1 O God of love, O King of peace, Make wars throughout the world to cease;

The wrath of sin ful man re-strain; Give peace, O God, give peace a-gain. A - MEN.

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?

DORT 6.6.4.6.6.6.4.

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.

2 My native country, thee,
Land of the noble free,
Thy name I love;

I love thy rocks and rills,
Thy woods and templed hills;
My heart with rapture thrills
Like that above.

3 Let music swell the breeze,
And ring from all the trees

Sweet freedom's song:
Let mortal tongues awake;

666 (DORT) 6.6.4.6.6.6.4.
1 God bless our native land;
Firm may she ever stand

Through storm and night:
When the wild tempests rave,
Ruler of wind and wave,
Do Thou our country save
By Thy great might.

Let all that breathe partake;
Let rocks their silence break,
The sound prolong.

4 Our fathers' God, to Thee,
Author of liberty,

To Thee we sing:
Long may our land be bright.
With freedom's holy light;
Protect us by Thy might,
Great God, our King.

Rev. Samuel F. Smith, 1832

2 For her our prayers shall rise To God, above the skies;

On Him we wait;
Thou who art ever nigh,
Guarding with watchful eye,
To Thee aloud we cry,

God save the State.

Siegfried A. Mahlmann, 1815: the 1st 5 lines trans. by Rev. Charles T. Brooks, c. 1833; the remainder by Rev. John S. Dwight, 1844
