He Who suns
and worlds upholdeth
Lends us His upholding hand;
He the ages Who unfoldeth
Doth our times
and ways command.
God is for us, God is for us;
In His strength and stay we stand.
He Who sage and seer instructed
Will not keep from us His lore;
Who those ancient
saints conducted
Hath not giv’n His guiding o’er.
God is for us, God is for us;
Helpful now as heretofore.
’Gainst oppression
forth He sends us;
His the cause of truth and right;
With His own great host
He binds us,
Lendeth us of His own might;
God is for us, God is for us;
Brings to happy end the fight.
Onward, upward doth He beckon;
Onward, upward would we press;
As His own our burdens reckon,
As our own His strength possess.
God is for us, God is for us;
God, our Helper, still we bless.
