Verse 1

ALMIGHTY Father, who dost give The gift of life to all who live, Look down on all earth’s sin and strife And lift us to a nobler life.

Verse 2

Lift up our hearts, O King of Kings, To brighter hopes and kindlier things, To visions of a larger good, And holier dreams of brotherhood.

Verse 3

Thy world is weary of its pain, Of selfish greed and fruitless gain, Of tarnished honour, falsely strong, And all its ancient deeds of wrong.

Verse 4

Hear thou the prayer thy servants pray Uprising from all lands to-day And, o’er the vanquished powers of sin, O bring Thy great salvation in.
