Now thank we all our God, With hearts and hands and
Who wondrous things hath done, In Whom His world

And when they trod the wintry strand, With prayer and psalm they worshiped Thee.

Show forth Thy pit - y on high where Thou reignest; Give to us Peace in our time, O Lord!

2 O God, omnipotent, mighty Avenger!
Watching unseen, wielding judgment unheard,
Show us compassion,-oh! save us from danger,-
Give to us peace in our time, O Lord!

3 O God, all-merciful! Earth hath forsaken
Thy ways all-holy,-hath slighted Thy word,-
Let not Thy wrath, in its terror, awaken,—
Give to us pardon and peace, O Lord!

4 So shall we glorify, filled with devotion,
Thy grace that saved us from peril and sword;
Shouting in chorus, from Ocean to Ocean,
"Not unto us, but to Thee, O Lord!”
