When dust to dust restored, Thy glorious name adored On airy wing; In strains eternally Divine. Thy grace to me Shall I then sing. Not for myself alone, But those Thou call'st Thine own The wide world o'er; Would I on beaded knee, These blessins seek of Thee, Thy grace implore. Look o'er our troubled land. Streteh Thy Almighty hadd, Thy help we crave; Let not Thy people fall, Lord God to Thee we call, Strengthen and save. Lord, look with thy pitying eye On our brave troops who lie Sick or in prison; Let Thy prcifteting arm Shield them from every harm, S ve them in heaven.
