Lyrics
When wilt thou save the people?
Oh God of mercy, when?
Not kings and lords, but nations
Not thrones and crowns, but men!
Flow'rs of thy heart, o God, are they
Let them not pass, like weeds, away
Their heritage a sunless day
God save the people.
Shall crime bring crime forever
Strength aiding still the strong?
Is it thy will, o Father
That men shall toil for wrong?
"No", say thy mountains
"No", say thy skies
Man's clouded sun shall brightly rise
And songs be heard instead of sighs
God save the people.
When wilt thou save the people?
Oh God of mercy when?
The people, Lord, the people
Not thrones and crowns, but men!
God save the people, for thine they are
Thy children as thy angels fair
God save the people from despair
God save the people
Oh God save the people!
God save the people!
Oh God save the people!
God save the people
Oh God save the people!
God save the people!
Oh God save the people!
When wilt thou save the people?
O God of mercy when?
The people, Lord, the people
Not thrones and crowns, but men!
God save the people, save us
For thine they are, for thine they are
Thy children as thy angels fair
O, God save the people
Save the people
God save the people
From despair
God save the people!
God save the people
O, God save the people
God save the people
O, God save the people
God save the people
God save the people
God save the people.
