God of Our Fathers Words by Daniel C. Roberts Music by George W. Warren Words and Music public domain 642
God of our fatherswhose almighty handLeads forth in beautyall the starry band
Of shining worldsin splendor through the skiesOur grateful songsbefore Thy throne arise
Thy love divinehath led us in the pastIn this free landby Thee our lot is cast
Be Thou our Ruler, Guardian Guide and StayThy Word our lawThy paths our chosen way
From war’s alarmsfrom deadly pestilenceBe Thy strong armour ever sure defense
Thy true religionin our hearts increaseThy bounteous goodnessnourish us in peace
Refresh Thy peopleon their toilsome wayLead us from nightto never-ending day
Fill all our liveswith love and grace divineAnd glory, laud and praisebe ever Thine
