Trinity Psalter Hymnal ‎#67B

67B. O God, Show Mercy to Us

1 O God, show mercy to us,
and bless us with your grace;
and cause to shine upon us
the brightness of your face;
so that the whole world over
may truly know your way,
and so that your salvation
all nations see displayed.
O God, let peoples praise you;
let all the peoples praise.
Let nations come rejoicing
and songs of gladness raise.

2 For you will judge the peoples
with perfect equity;
to nations of the whole earth
a governor you'll be.
O God, let peoples praise you;
let all the peoples praise.
The earth has brought its bounty
throughout its harvest days
since God, our God, will bless us.
Yes, God will blessing send,
that all the earth may fear him
to its remotest end.
