1. O God of love, O King of peace,
Make wars throughout the world to cease;
Our violent ways help us contain;
Give peace, O God, give peace again!

2. 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!

3. Where saints and angels dwell above,
All hearts are joined in holy love;
O bind us in that heavenly chain;
Give peace, O God, give peace again!
