Text:O Lord, our God, arise
Author:Anon.

393. O Lord, our God, arise

1 O Lord our God arise,
The cause of truth maintain,
And wide o'er all the peopled world
Extend her blessèd reign.

2 Thou Prince of Life, arise,
Nor let Thy glory cease,
Far spread the conquests of Thy grace,
And bless the earth with peace.

3 Thou Holy Ghost, arise,
Expand Thy quickening wing,
And o'er a dark and ruined world
Let light and order spring.

4 All on the earth, arise,
To God the Saviour sing:
From shore to shore, from earth to heaven,
Let echoing anthems ring.
