Lord, Lord, defend the desolate,

And rescue from the hands

Of wicked men the low estate,

Of him that help demands.

2 Visit the weak and fatherless,

Defend the poor man’s cause,

And raise the man in deep distress

By just and equal laws.

3 Yea, Lord, judge thou the world in might,

The wrongs of earth redress;

For thou art he who shall by right,

The nations all possess.
