We gather together to ask
the Lord’s blessing;
He chastens and hastens
His will to make known.
The wicked oppressing now
cease from distressing.
Sing praises to His Name;
He forgets not His own.
Beside us to guide us,
our God with us joining,
Ordaining, maintaining
His kingdom divine;
So from the beginning
the fight we were winning;
Thou, Lord, were at our side,
all glory be Thine!
We all do extol Thee,
Thou Leader triumphant,
And pray that Thou still
our Defender will be.
Let Thy congregation
escape tribulation;
Thy Name be ever praised!
O Lord, make us free!
