Lyrics

Grant peace, we pray, in mercy, Lord;
Peace in our time, oh send us!
For there is none on earth but You,
None other to defend us.
You, only, Lord, can fight for us.

O Comforter of priceless worth, 
Send peace and unity on earth;
Defend Your holy Church
that we may sing your praise eternally.
Amen.
