J. H.

HAve mercy on us, Lord,
and grant to us thy grace:
To shew to us do thou accord
the brightness of thy face;

 [verse 2]  That all the earth may know
the way to godly wealth:
And all the nations on a row
may see thy saving health.

 [verse 3]  Let all the world, O God,
give praise unto thy Name:
O let the people all abroad
extoll and laud the same.

 [verse 4]  Throughout the world so wide
let all rejoyce with mirth:
For thou with truth and right dost guide
the nations of the earth.

 [verse 5]  Let all the world, O God,
give praise unto thy Name:
O let the people all abroad
extoll and laud the same.

 [verse 6]  Then shall the earth increase,
great store of fruit shall fall;
And then our God the God of p••ace
shall bless us eke withal.

 [verse 7]  God shall us bless, I say,
and then both far and near,
The folk throughout the earth alway
of him shall stand in fear.
