God of Grace and God of Glory

God of grace and God of glory
 On Your people pour Your power
 Crown Your ancient Church's story
 Bring its bud to glorious flower
 Grant us wisdom, grant us courage
 For the facing of this hour
 Yeah, this hour
 Lo the host of evil 'round us
 Scorn the Christ, assail His ways
 From the fears that long have bound us
 Free our hearts to faith and praise
 Grant us wisdom, grant us courage
 For the living of these days
 Yeah, these days
 Cure Your children's warring madness
 Bend our pride to Your control
 Shame our wanton, selfish gladness
 Rich in things and poor in soul
 Grant us wisdom, grant us courage
 Lest we miss Your kingdom's goal
 Yeah, Your goal
 Save us from weak resignation
 To the evils we deplore
 Let the gift of Your salvation
 Be our glory evermore
 Grant us wisdom, grant us courage
 Serving You, whom we adore
 Yeah, adore
