God the all-terrible! King, who ordainest Great winds thy clarions, the lightnings thy sword, Show forth thy pity on high where thou reignest: Grant to us peace, O most merciful Lord. God the omnipotent! mighty avenger, Watching invisible, judging unheard, Doom us not now in the day our our danger: Grant to us peace, O most merciful Lord. God the all-merciful! earth has forsaken Thy ways of blessedness, slighted thy word; Bid not thy wrath in its terrors awaken: Grant to us peace, O most merciful Lord. So shall thy children in thankful devotion Praise him who saved them from peril and sword, Singing in chorus from ocean to ocean, 'Peace to the nations, and praise to the Lord.'
