English text
Turn us, O Lord, thy face display,
And grief and fear shall fly away.
Beneath the terrors of thine eye,
We tremble, Lord, we faint, we die.
O let the man ordain'd by Thee
to bring us peace and liberty,
by Thee, great God, supported stand,
and save, O save a sinking land.
So ne'er shall vice our steps betray,
again from virtue's paths to stray,
but pray'r and praise thy love repay.
