God of our fathers, Whose almighty hand

Author: D. C. Roberts Hymnal: The Church Hymnal #194 (1898) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Lyrics: 1 God of our fathers, Whose almighty hand Leads forth in beauty all the starry band Of shining worlds in splendor thro' the skies, Our grateful songs before Thy throne arise. 2 Thy love divine hath led us in the past; In this free land by Thee our lot is cast; Be Thou our ruler, guardian, guide and stay, Thy word our law, Thy paths our chosen way. 3 From war's alarms, from deadly pestilence, Be Thy strong arm our ever sure defence; Thy true religion in our hearts increase, Thy bounteous goodness nourish us in peace. 4 Refresh Thy people on their toilsome way, Lead us from night to never-ending day; Fill all our lives with love and grace divine, And glory, laud and praise be ever Thine. Amen. Topics: National Days; Our Country Languages: English Tune Title: PRO PATRIA
