Would those who thirst for blood,
Thy little flock devour?
Lord, change their hearts or check their rage
By thine almighty power.
When dangers compass round,
May thine uplifted arm
Restrain or frustrate their designs,
Who seek to do us harm.
‘Midst savage beasts of prey,
Thou art our confidence;
From men more savage far than they,
Be thou our sure defence.
To thee, almighty God,
In all our straits we come;
Do thou protect us in the way,
And bring us safely home.
