514 – Lord of Our Life

1

Lord of our life, and God of our salvation,

Star of our night, and hope of every nation,

Hear and receive Thy church’s supplication,

Lord God Almighty.

2

Lord, Thou canst help when earthly armor faileth;

Lord, Thou canst save when deadly sin assaileth;

Lord, o’er Thy rock nor death nor hell prevaileth;

Grant us Thy peace, Lord

3

Peace in our hearts our evil thoughts assuaging;

Peace in Thy church, where brothers are engaging;

Peace, when the world its busy war is waging;

Send us, O Savior.

4

Grant us Thy help till foes are backward driven;

Grant them Thy truth that they may be forgiven;

Grant peace on earth, and, after we have striven,

Peace in Thy heaven.
