¶Lyrics / Text

::''1.'' Let God arise to lead forth those Who march to war! Let God arise, and all His foes Be scattered far! ::''2.'' So Israel prayed, and Thou, O Lord, Wast with him then: Be with us now, who draw the sword For war again. ::''3.'' Grant Thou our soldiers courage high When foes are near, To strive, to suffer, or to die Untouched by fear. ::''4.'' Grant strength to those who mourn today Their loved ones lost, Yea, those who give their best, nor stay To count the cost. ::''5.'' Fight Thou for us, that we may fill Thy courts with praise; Then teach us mercy, teach us still The fallen to raise. ::''6.'' Yet more and more, as ages run, Bid warfare cease, And give to all beneath the sun Love, freedom, peace.
