When wicked men with envious rage,
Against thy righteous cause arise,
Great God, do thou their wrath assuage,
Avert the evils they devise.
If for some wise, and gracious end,
Our foes are suffered to prevail;
Mercy, Oh Lord, in judgment send,
Nor let our strength and courage fail.
Sustain us in the gloomy hour,
And guide us through the thorny road;
Exert for us thy might power,
Be our protector and our God.
