514 - Lord of Our Life
Lord of our life, and God of our salvation,
Star
of our night, and Hope of every nation,
Hear
and receive thy church’s supplication,
Lord
God Almighty.
2
Lord,
Thou canst help when earthly armor faileth;
Lord,
Thou canst save when deadly sin assaileth;
Lord,
o’er Thy rock nor death nor hell prevaileth;
Grant
us Thy peace, Lord.
3
Peace,
in our hearts, our evil thoughts assuaging,
Peace,
in Thy church, where brothers are engaging,
Peace,
when the world its busy war is waging;
Calm
thy foes raging!
4
Grant
us Thy help till backward they are driven;
Grant
them Thy truth, that they may be forgiven;
Grant
peace on earth, and after we have striven,
Peace
in Thy heaven.
