Chorale: Soprano, Alto, Tenor, Bass


May to us God his mercy show
And his salvation give us;
His face on us with radiant beams
Pour light for life eternal,
That we discern his handiwork;
And what on earth he loveth
And Jesus Christ's own healing strength
Be known to all the nations
And they to God converted!
