Save the People |
When wilt thou save the people? |
Oh God of mercy, when? |
Not kings and lords, but nations |
Not thrones and crowns, but men! |
Flow’rs of thy heart, o God, are they; |
Let them not pass, like weeds, away |
Their heritage a sunless day |
God save the people |
Shall crime bring crime forever |
Strength aiding still the strong? |
Is it thy will, o Father |
That men shall toil for wrong? |
«No», say thy mountains; |
«No», say thy skies; |
Man’s clouded sun shall brightly rise |
And songs be heard instead of sighs |
God save the people |
When wilt thou save the people? |
Oh God of mercy when? |
The people, Lord, the people |
Not thrones and crowns, but men! |
God save the people, for thine they are |
Thy children as thy angels fair |
God save the people from despair |
God save the people |
Oh God save the people! |
God save the people! |
Oh God save the people! |
God save the people |
Oh God save the people! |
God save the people! |
Oh God save the people! |
