God help our country to be strong,
’Gainst all the battle-hosts of wrong;
In all we pledge or think or do
God help our country to be true.
God hold our nation’s aim sincere,
God save her heart from coward fear,
God prosper her with true success,
And crown her head with worthiness.
From foe without and foe within,
From open shame and hidden sin,
From boastful pride and greedy store,
God keep our nation evermore!
Amos R. Wells
O Lord of our hope, and lord of our life,
you shelter us here in darkness and strife.
O Lord, guide us always, bring us close to your light
Through fear and attack, pain or dark night.
O Lord of our hope, and Lord of our peace,
O teach us thy truths until all struggles cease,
O Lord, guide us always, bring us close to your light
Through fear and attack, pain or dark night.
O Lord of our hope, and Lord of all power,
Who guards us and keeps us within your strong tower
O Lord, guide us always, bring us close to your light
Through fear and attack, pain or dark night.

O Lord, this day we come before you,
asking your help.
Be with our nation and guide those who must protect the land
by their decisions.
We thank you always for all of your help. Give us grateful and loving hearts.
In the name of Jesus, Amen.

From open shame and hidden sin,
