Hymn A & M 606-To thee, our God, we fly
1. To thee, our God, we fly
for mercy and for grace;
O hear our lowly cry
and hide not thou thy face.
O Lord, stretch forth thy mighty hand
and guard and bless our fatherland.
2. Arise, O Lord of hosts,
be jealous for thy name
and drive from out our coasts
the sins that put to shame.
O Lord, stretch forth, etc.
3. Thy best gifts from on high
in rich abundance pour
that we may magnify
and praise thee more and more.
O Lord, stretch forth, etc.
4. The powers ordained by thee
with heavenly wisdom bless;
may they thy servants be
and rule in righteousness!
O Lord, stretch forth, etc.
5. The Church of thy dear Son
inflame with love's pure fire;
bind her once more in one
and life and truth inspire.
O Lord, stretch forth, etc.
6. The pastors of thy fold
with grace and power endue
that, faithful, pure, and bold,
they may be pastors true.
O Lord, stretch forth, etc.
7. O let us love thy house
and sanctify thy day,
bring unto thee our vows,
and loyal homage pay.
O Lord, stretch forth, etc.
8. Give peace, Lord, in our time;
O let no foe draw nigh
nor lawless deed of crime
insult thy majesty!
O Lord, stretch forth, etc.
9. Though vile and worthless, still
thy people, Lord, are we;
and for our God we will
none other have but thee.
O Lord, stretch forth, etc.
