Peace—if unstained by disgrace.
Grant us Thy love and the love of our country;
Grant us Thy strength, for our strength’s in Thy name;
Shield us from danger, from every adversity,
Shield us, O Father, from shame!
Last born of Nations! the offspring of freedom!
Heir to wide prairies, thick forests, red gold!
God grant us wisdom to value our birthright,
Courage to guard what we hold!
