1 Gud, hald oss uppe ved ditt ord,
Og giv det yvermagt paa Jord
Mot deim, somjesus Krist, vaar Sol,
Vil støyta fraa hans Kongestol!

2 Ja syn deim, Herre Krist, ditt Verk,
At du er framsyr alle sterk!
Giv Kyrkja Trygd i hennar Trengd,
Ditt Namn til Lov i Ævelengd!

3 Du heilag Ande, Trøystarman,
Giv einmælt Tru i alle land!
Statt med oss i vaar sidste Strid,
Og gjer vaar Daude sæl og blid!
