1 God of mercy, God of grace,
Show the brightness of your face.
Shine upon us, Savior, shine;
Fill your Church with light divine,
And your saving health extend
To the earth's remotest end.
2 Let the people praise you, Lord!
Be by all that live adored.
Let the nations shout and sing
Glory to their Savior King,
At your feet their tribute pay,
And your holy will obey.
3 Let the people praise you, Lord,
Then enjoy your rich reward!
God to us his blessing give,
We to God devoted live,
All below and all above
One in joy and light and love.
