LXVII. Have mercy on us, Lord

1 Have mercy on us, Lord,
and grant to us thy grace,
To shew to us do thou accord
the brightness of thy face;

2 That all the earth may know
the way to godly wealth,
And all the nations here below
may see thy saving health.

3 Let all the world, O God,
give praise unto thy Name,
And let the people all abroad
extol and laud the same:

4 Throughout the world so wide
let all rejoice with mirth,
For thou with truth and right dost guide
the nations of the earth.

5 Let all the world, O God,
give praise unto thy Name,
And let the people all abroad
extol and laud the same:

6 Then shall the earth increase,
great store of fruit shall fall;
And then our God, the God of peace,
shall ever bless us all.

7 God shall us greatly bless,
and then both far and near,
The folk which all the earth possess
of him shall stand in fear.
