1. Bless, Lord, thine Heritage,
In thine abundant Grace;
Let, on thy Servants, ever shine,
The Brightness of thy Face.

2. That so thy righteous Ways
May, thro' the Earth, be known;
And all the Nations of the World
May, thy Salvation, own.

3. In Praise, to Thee, O God,
Let thine own People join;
And may the Gentile World, in Songs
Of Praise, to Thee, combine.
4. O let the Nations all
Be glad, and chearful sing;
For thou art, over all the Earth,
A just, and gracious King.

5. In Praise, to Thee, O God,
Let thine own People joyn;
And may the Gentile World, in Songs
Of Praise, to Thee, combine.
6. Then th' Earth shall Plenty yield;
And God shall bless our Store.
7. Our own God shall us bless; the World
Shall fear, and, him, adore.
