One in Faith ‎#793

793. O God of Love

1 O God of love, O King of peace,
Make wars throughout the world to cease;
Violent acts, O God, restrain;
Give peace, O God, give peace again!

2 Remember, Lord, your works of old,
The wonders that to us were told;
Remember not our sins' dark stain;
Give peace, O God, give peace again!

3 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!

4 Where saints and angels dwell above,
All hearts are knit in holy love;
O bind us in that heav'nly chain;
Give peace, O God, give peace again!
