God the All-Terrible!

  1. God the all-terrible! King, who ordainest
    great winds thy clarions, lightnings thy sword,
    show forth thy pity on high where thou reignest;
    give to us peace in our time, O Lord.
  2. God the omnipotent! Mighty avenger,
    watching invisible, judging unheard,
    save us in mercy, O save us from danger;
    give to us peace in our time, O Lord.
  3. God the all-merciful! Earth hath forsaken
    thy ways of blessedness, slighted thy Word;
    bid not thy wrath in its terrors awaken;
    give to us peace in our time, O Lord.
  4. God the all-righteous One! Man hath defied thee;
    yet to eternity standeth thy Word;
    falsehood and wrong shall not tarry beside thee;
    give to us peace in our time, O Lord.
  5. God the all-wise! By the fire of thy chast’ning,
    earth shall to freedom and truth be restored;
    through the thick darkness thy kingdom is hast’ning;
    thou wilt give peace in thy time, O Lord.
