EN 5335 God of the Nations, Near and Far

2Thess.3.16

Versi Version 1

1

God of the nations, near and far,

Ruler of all mankind,

Bless Thou Thy people as they strive

The paths of peace to find.

2

The clash of arms still shakes the sky,

King battles still with king—

Wild through the frighted air of night

The bloody tocsins ring.

3

But clearer far the friendly speech

Of scientists and seers,

The wise debate of statesmen and

The shouts of pioneers.

4

And stronger far the clasped hands

Of labor’s teeming throngs,

Who in a hundred tongues repeat

Their common creeds and songs.

5

From shore to shore the peoples call

In loud and sweet acclaim,

The gloom of land and sea is lit

With Pentecostal flame.

6

O Father! from the curse of war

We pray Thee give release,

And speed, O speed the blessed day

Of justice, love and peace!
