---Alternative verses---
Oh, show thyself the Prince of Peace,
Command the din of war to cease;
Oh, bid contending nations rest,
And let love rule every breast!
Then peace return with balmy wing,
Glad plenty laughs, the valleys sing;
Reviving commerce lifts her head,
And want, and woe, and hate have fled.
Thy footsteps, Lord, with joy we trace,
And mark the conquests of thy grace;
Complete the work thou hast begun,
And let thy will on earth be done.
Oh, show thyself the Prince of Peace,
Command the din of war to cease;
Oh, bid contending nations rest,
And love pervade each human breast,
Then peace shall lift her balmy wing,
Glad plenty laugh, the valleys sing;
Reviving commerce lift her head,
And want, and woe, and hate be fled.
Thou good, and wise, and righteous Lord;
All move subservient to thy word;
Oh, soon let every nation prove
The perfect joy of Christian love.
