 O Thou All-seeing, in whose sight 
 A thousand years are like a day. 
 Look on our land and let Thy light 
 Still guide Thy people on their way; 
 Our fathers' God, be Thou our Lord, 
 Turn Thou Thy face and speed Thy word ; 
 5o shall it be our shield and sword; 
 Thine is the will, ours shall accord, — 
 God and America! 
 
 When Duty sounds her trumpet-call, 
 
 Strong in Thy strength Thy sons shall stand. 
 Their love, their lives, their hope, their all 
 For Thee, O God, and for our land — 
 America, Thy maiden free. 
 Thy vestal by the sparkling sea. 
 Whose hearth-fires burn for liberty. 
 For this, O God, and love to Thee, — 
 God and America! 
 
 Gift 
 
Gird Thou the world with Thy good will; 
 
 5till unto us in mercy bend; 
 5o in our time, O God, fulfil 
 Thy reign of peace to have no end; 
 O let our way in Thee be found; 
 Still let Thy light in us abound; 
 5o shall we go with glory crowned. 
 As still we sing with joyous sound, 
 God and America ! 
 
 Thus lead us. Lord, forever lead, 
 A faithful witness, O our God, 
 Till all the nations in their need 
 Shall come with Thine own gladness shod; 
 Till all beneath Thy daily sun 
 Who know Thee not in joy shall run 
 And turn to Thee, the Holy One; 
 For this, O God, Thy will be done,— 
 God and America!
