This was a poem written by @Ceph , who graciously gave me permission to turn it into a song.
God of mercy , God of grace ,
Show the brightness of Thy face ;
Shine on Zion , Father , shine ,
Fill the world with light devine ;
And Thy saving health extend
Unto earth's remotest end .
Let the people praise Thee , Lord ;
Be by all that live adored ;
Let the nation's shout and sing
Glory to their Saviour King ;
At Thy feet their tribute pay ,
And Thy Holy Will obey .
Let the people praise Thee , Lord ;
Earth shall then her fruits afford ;
God to man His blessings give ,
Man to God devoted live ;
Sin and death from earth remove ,
God be all in all in love .
Henry Francis Lyte ( 1793-1847) .

O God , our help in ages past ,
Our hope for years to come ,
Our shelter from the stormy blast ,
And our eternal home .
Beneath the shadow of Thy Throne
Thy saints have dwelt secure ;
Sufficient is Thine arm alone ,
And our defence is sure .
Before the hills in order stood ,
Or earth received her frame ,
From everlasting Thou art God ,
To endless years the same .
A thousand ages in Thy sight
Are like an evening gone ;
Short as the watch that ends the night
Before the rising sun .
Time , like an ever rolling stream ,
Bears all its sons away ;
They fly forgotten , as a dream
Dies at the opening day .
O God , our help in ages past ,
Our hope for years to come ,
Be Thou our guard while troubles last ,
And our eternal home .
Isaac Watts (1674-1748) .
