Teach them true liberty, Make them from tyrants free, Let their homes happy be! God save the poor! 2 The arms of wicked men Do thou with might restrain; God save the poor! Raise thou their lowliness, Succor thou their distress, Thou whom the meanest bless; God save the poor! 3 Give them stanch honesty, Let their pride manly be; God save the poor! Help them to hold the right, Give them both truth and might, Lord of all life and light! God save the poor! Topics: The Christian Nation Freedom; God Save the Poor
