O God of love, O king of peace/ make wars throughout the world to cease;
Our greed and violent ways restrain./ Give peace, O God, give peace again.
Remember, Lord, your works of old,/ the wonders that your people told;
Remember not our sins’ deep stain./ Give peace, O God, give peace again.
Whom shall we trust but you, O Lord?/ Where rest but on your faithful word?
None ever called on you in vain./ Give peace, O God, give peace again.
Where saints and angels dwell above/ all hearts are joined in holy love;
Oh, bind us in that heavenly chain, / Give peace, O God, give peace again.
— H.W. Baker (1861)
