Full Lyrics
1. Our Fathers' God, to Thee we lift our cry;
In penitence we come to Thee:
O save us from the fearful blight of war;
Upon Thy strength we cast our ev'ry care.
O teach us how to do Thy will,
To live in peace and purity.
Refrain
O turn us, Lord, from arm of flesh
To Thine almighty pow'r; Work out Thy purpose here,
from shore to shore, To keep us from all wrong;
O manifest Thy presence with us, Lord, In this our trying hour.
2. Remember not our failures, gracious God,
Blot out the sins Thine eyes can see;
For more than wealth, we need the treasures, Lord,
That come to all who love and do Thy word,
We need to conquer self and sin;
We need Thy servants, Lord, to be. Refrain
